    "Hare Ram Hare Ram, Ram Ram Hare Hare, Hare Krishna Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna Hare Hare" Lord Krishna is the incarnation of Narayana Himself. Krishna is the Lord of the Universe, the foremost of all beings. He is the primal God, transcendental and original, the unborn and eternal. He is the source of all spiritual and material worlds. Wise men becomes His devotee and always worship Him. Divine discourse by Lord Krishna is famous as Bhagvad Gita. It is the most popular and well known of all the sacred scriptures from ancient India. Its intrinsic beauty is that its knowledge applies to all human beings and valid in all ages, yes, today as well. Bhagvad Gita tells us that Soul is eternal, it never takes birth, it never dies. Body is like clothes for the soul. Body dies and soul gets a new body. The ultimate aim of soul (atman) is to dissolve itself into the param-atman (God) and a human-being should use his/her body to acheive this goal. Bhagwad Gita is still available today, so is Bhagwan Shri Krishna. Many (but not all) people felt His divine presence in all ages starting from Dwapar yuga and many (again, not all) people feel His divine presence today as well. Bhagwan Sri Krishna is the embodiment of love. When someone loves God, love becomes divine and life gets a meaning. i pray the god to give each and evryone a gud Health & wealth n gud, kind Heart.
