ACTIVITIES
Lord Sri Krishna is popularly known as the charming blue-bodied, flute-bearing God who appeared on this planet about five thousand years ago to destroy the demons and reestablish religion. His glory is widespread as the disseminator of the matchless spiritual wisdom – Srimad Bhagavad-gita.
Krishna is not a mythological figure but the Supreme Historical Person who performed superhuman pastimes. As the source of all incarnations, He is the fountainhead of all beauty, knowledge, and bliss.
Ishvarah paramah krishnah sac-chid-ananda-vigrahah. Anadir adir govindah sarva-karana-karanam.

Who is Krishna?
Bhagavan - The Possessor of Opulence
The word Bhagavan means one who is complete in six opulences. A person who has any of these becomes attractive, but Krishna has them in full.
The Original Form
God is not formless. The two-handed, blue-colored, flute-bearing form is the original ever-existing form of God (sat-cit-ananda).
Source of Avatars
Whenever the Lord incarnates, He becomes visible to our eyes. Just like the Sun doesn't die at sunset, the Lord appears and disappears.
