PICTURE: SMALL BOY KRISHNA STEALING BUTTER!

HOW KRISHNA TOOK BIRTH? 


SRILA PRABHUPAD EXPLAINS:

Vasudeva saw that wonderful child born as a baby with four hands, holding conchshell, club, disc and lotus flower, decorated with the mark of Srivatsa, wearing the jeweled necklace of kaustubha stone, dressed in
yellow silk, appearing dazzling like a bright blackish cloud, wearing a helmet bedecked with the vaidurya stone, valuable bracelets, earrings and similar other ornaments all over His body and an abundance of hair
on His head. 

Due to the extraordinary features of the child, Vasudeva was struck with wonder. How could a newly born child be so decorated? 

He could therefore understand that Lord Krsna had now appeared, and he became overpowered by the occasion. 

Vasudeva very humbly wondered that although he was an ordinary living entity conditioned by material nature and was externally imprisoned by Kamsa, the all-pervading Personality of Godhead, Visnu, or Krsna, was appearing as a child in his home, exactly in His original position. 

No earthly child is born with four hands, decorated with ornaments and nice clothing, fully equipped with all the signs of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.”
