Original Supreme Personality of Godhead
Krishna is not an incarnation of God but is the original Supreme Personality of Godhead Himself.
Bhagavad Gita 11.54,
Srila Prabhupada
Prayer of Hanuman
bhava-bandha-cchide tasyai
sprhayami na muktaye
bhavan prabhur aham
dasa iti yatra vilupyate
I do not wish to take liberation or to merge in the Brahman effulgence, where the conception of being a servant of the Lord is completely lost.
Sri Chaitanya Caritamrita Adi Lila 6.42,
Srila Prabhupada.
Achieving The Gift of Devotion
Krishna will be merciful to us and we shall be blessed with the gift of devotion to His divine feet the very day that we are delivered from the evil desire of seeking advantages and honors from others.
Krishna and His Sound
Krishna and the sound vibration “KRISHNA” are non-different.
Name of Krishna
Krishna is present in the form of His transcendental name, and we can contact Him immediately by hearing His name. Simply by hearing the name Krishna we immediately become freed from material contamination.
Path of Perfection, Chapter 8,
Srila Prabhupada
Krishna’s Mercy
If those who desire material enjoyment or merging into the existence of the Absolute Truth engage in the Lord’s transcendental loving service, they will immediately attain shelter at Krishna’s lotus feet, although they did not ask for it. Krishna is, therefore, very merciful.
