If
we go minutely into the origin of Shri Krishna, then, before creation
came into existence, there was no consciousness or inertness.
There was no Nature, nor were the Sat, Rajas and Tamo Gunas there.
This Universe along with its nether worlds and higher worlds were
not there. There was no atom, nor the 5 elements. There was neither
death nor immortality. At that time also what was there, was Aksharatit
Shri Krishna's Divine Paramdham, in which HE Himself was there
in HIS Eternal Sat-Chid-Ananda form. Wherever there is Shri Krishna
there are people who bow down to Him,in reverence, which is called
doing 'Pranam'. Whosoever does 'Pranam' to Shri Krishan, is a
'Krishna Pranami' ! Therefore, logically it is not possible to
separate Shri Krishna and a Shri Krishna Pranami; for that matter
even Shri Krishna Pranami Dharma ! Because, Shri Krishna and the
Shri Krishna Pranami Dharma are the obverse and converse of the
same coin. How can the moon and moonlight be separated ? or fire
and its heat ? And there is no dispute in the fact that Shri Krishna
is the Aksharatit Poorna Brahma Paramatma. HE is known by the
names, Supreme Truth, Supreme Consciousness, Eternal, Ancient,
Imperishable, Infinite, Non-dual, etc. in the Shastras. A subtle
indication to this effect is given by Shri Krishna Himself to
Arjuna in the Gita - as "Imam Vivasvate Yogam, Proktavaanahamavyayam",
(Gita IV-1) meaning - "O Arjun ! Even before this Kalpa, I had
taught this imperishable yoga to the Sun"... Here it is to be
understood, that the body standing in front of Arjun cannot make
this statement, because that body will disappear after some time
! Therefore, the speaker Shri Krishna is different !
The
Supreme Poorna Brahma Paramatma incarnates on this earth through
His part power for various reasons. The manifestation of Shri
Krishna took place in order to place before the world the path
of One-pointed Prema Lakshana Bhakti demostrated by the Vrajagopis
through their pure Love ! After that, to kill Kamsa and other
demons, and thereby reduce the burden of oppression on the earth;
and finally, to irrigate the minds of the miserable souls of the
world through the Ganges-like flow of knowledge of the Bhagavad
Gita.
