Lord Krishna (His Lilas and Teachings) -Swami Sivananda
INTRODUCTION
Yogeshvara
Sri Krishna ate a particle of vegetable that remained in the vessel of Draupadi, when Durvasa came to seek Yudhishthira’s hospitality with a large number of followers, when Draupadi herself had finished her meal and there was nothing to place before the guests. He made them feel as if they had a most sumptuous meal when they were taking bath. They had to go back with their heads down with a sense of shame. He supplied inexhaustible cloths to Draupadi, when she was being dragged in the court of Duryodhana. He held the Govardhana hills on His finger. He multiplied Himself and appeared in countless forms in Rasa Lila. He multiplied Himself into various forms, when Brahma kept the Gopas and calves away from Krishna’s view. Can a human being do this? It is only a Yogeshvara who can perform these great miracles.
