Kṛṣṇa is known as Madana-mohana because He conquers the mind of Cupid. He is also known as Madana-mohana due to His accepting the devotional service of the damsels of Vraja and rendering favors unto them. After conquering Cupid's pride, the Lord engages in the rāsa dance as the new Cupid. He is also known as Madana-mohana because of His ability to conquer the minds of women with His five arrows called form, taste, smell, sound and touch. The pearls of the necklace which hangs about the neck of Kṛṣṇa are as white as ducks, and the peacock feather which decorates His head is colored like a rainbow. His yellow garment is like lightning in the sky, and Kṛṣṇa Himself is like the newly arrived clouds. The gopīs are like footbells on His feet, and when the cloud pours rain on the grains in the field, it appears that Kṛṣṇa is nourishing the hearts of the gopīs by calling down His pastime rain of mercy. Indeed, ducks fly in the sky during the rainy season, and rainbows can also be seen at that time. Kṛṣṇa freely moves amongst His friends as a cowherd boy in Vṛndāvana, and when He plays His flute, all living creatures, mobile and immobile, become overwhelmed with ecstasy. They quiver, and tears flow from their eyes. Of Kṛṣṇa's various opulences, His conjugal love is the summit. He is the master of all riches, all strength, all fame, all beauty, all knowledge and all renunciation, and out of these, His perfect beauty is His conjugal attraction. The form of Kṛṣṇa, the conjugal beauty, is eternally existent in Kṛṣṇa alone, whereas His other opulences are present in His Nārāyaṇa form. (Ref - Teachings of Lord Caitanya, Chapter 10, The Beauty of Kṛṣṇa) #Krishna #beauty #SrilaPrabhupada #Iskcon #HareKrishna

In Padyāvalī Rādhārāṇī told Her companion, "My dear friend, I was just going to the bank of the Yamunā, and all of a sudden a very nice boy whose complexion is like a dark blue cloud became visible in front of My eyes. He glanced over Me in a way that I cannot describe. But since this has occurred, I am sorry that I can no longer engage My mind in the duties of My household affairs." This is an instance of preliminary attraction for Kṛṣṇa. (Ref - The Nectar of Devotion, Chapter 44, Devotional Service in Conjugal Love) #Krishna #Radharani #RadheRadhe #Love #iskcon #SrilaPrabhupada

As Kṛṣṇa is the highest emblem of spiritual perfection, so Rādhārāṇī is the highest emblem of that spiritual pleasure potency by which Kṛṣṇa is satisfied. Since Kṛṣṇa is unlimited, in order to satisfy Him Rādhārāṇī is also unlimited. Kṛṣṇa is satisfied just by seeing Rādhārāṇī, but Rādhārāṇī expands Herself in such a way that Kṛṣṇa desires to enjoy Her more. Because Kṛṣṇa was unable to estimate the pleasure potency of Rādhārāṇī, He decided to accept the role of Rādhārāṇī, and that combination is Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu.

Happy Krishna Janmashtami!

I don't think any renaming or reclaiming the name Bharat will happen... Modi's game was to rattle the opposition and expose them and show the public that they don't like the name Bharat and he succeeded. #Bharat

Is India likely to be renamed as Bharat ? Great if it happens... @narendramodi

My dear Lord Kṛṣṇa, You are so kind upon this useless soul, but I do not know why You have brought me here. Now You can do whatever You like with me. But I guess You have some business here, otherwise why would You bring me to this terrible place? Most of the population here is covered by the material modes of ignorance and passion. Absorbed in material life, they think themselves very happy and satisfied, and therefore they have no taste for the transcendental message of Vāsudeva. I do not know how they will be able to understand it. But I know Your causeless mercy can make everything possible because You are the most expert mystic. How will they understand the mellows of devotional service? O Lord, I am simply praying for Your mercy so that I will be able to convince them about Your message. All living entities have become under the control of the illusory energy by Your will, and therefore, if You like, by Your will they can also be released from the clutches of illusion. I wish that You may deliver them. Therefore if You so desire their deliverance, then only will they be able to understand Your message. The words of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam are Your incarnation, and if a sober person repeatedly receives it with submissive aural reception, then he will be able to understand Your message. ~Prayers Written By Srila Prabhupāda on Jaladuta, September 18, 1965 #HareKrishna #SrilaPrabhupada #Jaladuta #JaladutaDiary #Boston #SrilaPrabhupadadeparturetoUS #puredevotee #Iskconinc #Iskcon

A peacock feather decorates His head, and on His neck hangs a lovely necklace of brilliant pearls. As He holds His charming flute to His lips, His face looks as beautiful as the full autumn moon. Śrī Caitanya-caritămṛta Antya 15.63

कोई जाये जो वृन्दावन, मेरा पैगाम ले जाना, मैं खुद तो जा नहीं पाऊँ, मेरा प्रणाम ले जाना । ये कहना मुरली वाले से मुझे तुम कब बुलाओगे, पड़े जो जाल माया के उन्हे तुम कब छुडाओगे । मुझे इस घोर दल-दल से, मेरे भगवान ले जाना ॥ कोई जाये जो वृन्दावन... जब उनके सामने जाओ तो उनको देखते रहना, मेरा जो हाल पूछें तो ज़ुबाँ से कुछ नहीं कहना । बहा देना कुछ एक आँसू मेरी पहचान ले जाना ॥ कोई जाये जो वृन्दावन...

Congratulations India! @isro @narendramodi
