Krishna
Lord Krishna holds superficially an ordinary
flute in most Hindu scriptural appearance.
Now it is up to the
devotees to interpret the meaning of flute with their own view. Even the flute
of Lord Krishna is full of all the Kalas and is a symbol of love. In his entire
life, lord Krishna only once raised a weapon, that to in the form of wheel during
the battle of Mahabharata, to protect the vow of Pitamaha Bheeshma. Otherwise,
only the flute was everything for him. Like a magic stick the flute accompanied
Lord Krishna all through
Krishna is Bhagawan
Bhagawan is described as one having bhaga
or majesty. The bhaga or majesty is described as six-fold –
- omnipotence,
- · virtue,
- · glory,
- · beauty,
- · omniscience and
- · non-affectedness
The full manifestation of
all these six excellences is called bhaga. He who is distinguished by these
excellences is the Bhagawan. For the Vaishnava Puranas – and the Bhagavata is
one such – Mahavishnu, including all his emanations and incarnations, is the
Bhagawan..
