  1. “AMMA”. AMMA is LORD KRISHNA, SRIMAD BHAGWAD GITA, teaching us GITA, through all HER actions, words and deeds.

  2. Krishna is the Lord of the universe and Amma is always one with Lord Krishna. Amma as Lord Krishna is the protector of the universe, and as Devi the compassionate Mother of the universe. To me, realizing Amma (Krishna), Her true nature is my life’s goal.

  3. Krishna is a Mahatma and His teachings, as Amma says, are beyond Time and Space.
    Yet, devotees of Krishna suffer before they realize God. Krishna makes sure you do not drown completely in the ocean of samsara (this world), but also makes sure that you do not find land either. In that constant gasping for breath you realize that this world is not real.
    In contrast, the beloved Devi makes sure that you have enough support to survive, grants your wishes…but makes sure, by Her Compassion and Love, you know that they are not worth the knowledge of the SELF and with Immense Patience, like a Mother, Guides you to the knowledge of the SELF.
    I worship AMMA as the very personification of ParaShakthi (Creatrix) and as Shiva/Shakthi

  4. AMMA Herself…

  5. Sri Krishna is a selfless God who did not worry about getting a bad name while helping His devotees. Radha, Meerabai, the gopis loved Him and He helped them to get closer to Him. Krishna is the gracious God who thought only about His devotees’s welfare without thinking about Himself. And Amma too is like Krishna who thinks only about Her devotees and never about Herself.

  6. Lord Krishna says “Whenever there is a fall in Dharma and a rise in Adharma, I come.”…yes Amma has come to guide us

  7. As a baby and child, Krishna personified and triggered sweetness and innocent devotion.
    As an adult he was the embodiment of the purest knowledge and the ideal of dharma.
    Same for Amma: In the first years after meeting her, she works on our heart (emotions/devotion). Many years later – hopefully – it will be the turn for our mind (discrimination/detachment).

  8. Krishna is an enchanting form of God who takes his devotees to Shiva in many different ways. Sometimes he sings, sometimes he plays games on a river bank or the flute. A little older Krishna lures devotees and breaks hearts. He is a soft male. He must be such a relief to those on whom he showers his grace – as the Pandavas! He churns us to remove our butter – fat, what is not needed? Shiva is sometimes shown as worshipping him because the journey is as important as the destination.

  9. whatever i can percieve of God, that is Krishna (and Amma) for me.

  10. what everyone has written above seems to cover the Q137 quite well.
    I bow to all of you.

  11. MY DIVINE AMMA IS LORD KRISHNA. AMMA HAS MADE ME REALISE MY SELF AND BEFORE THAT I WAS UNAWARE OF ANYTHING. I BOW TO THE LOTUS FEET OF MY DIVINE AMMA.

  12. Amma says,”If all other avatars are waves in the ocean,Sri Krishna is ocean itself !”
    He’s the ultimate guru,a great role model to follow, since he was smiling from his birth till the merging, and above all a great companion whom you can trust for ever. He’s brahman itself embodied. Krishna represents a great friend for me and the same krishna has come now in Amma’s form, no doubt!

  13. The Eternal and Mystic Charmer, The Divine Guru/Teacher- dispeller of ignorance/darkness; The Divine Child, The Divine and Eternal lover, One who has perfectly balanced feminine and masculine traits – The UNIVERSE in its totality decided to condense into the dark, divine, beautiful frame that is Sri Krishna!

  14. Krishna for me symbolises the triumph of good over evil. An avatar whose sole purpose was for the upliftment of mankind. I associate the mischievous God with the Glorious Bhagvad Gita and the Gopis.

  15. Krishna is my beloved. The meaning of Krishna is” Karshate ithi Krishna”, who is attracted by the whole universe. In the higher stand point Krishna is the pure conciousness or pure existence.

  16. When I think of Krishna, I think of when Amma was a child and just had that deep longing for Krishna and just cried for him. I think of Her devotion.

  17. Krishna, The word itself means ‘the most attractive’. In all the vedas & shastras & everywhere Krishna is addressed as Bhagavan (The Supreme Lord). It was Krishna who advised Arjuna the most important message of humanity.

  18. Well, how much we say is not enough, nothing is a limit for Krishna because Krishna is the limit for Krishna himself. He is the most loved one. Krishna is the only thing & everything. No one can be compared to him. It is a blessing that we have an opportunity to speak about Krishna. I thank Amma and her devotees to allow us all express ourself about Krishna.
    Thank you very much… Hare Krishna Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna Hare Hare

  19. Very well said…”Motherskitten”… “Krishna is an enchanting form of God who takes his devotees to Shiva in many different ways”

  20. Lord Krishna, without your Grace I do not know what would have been my state. Your compassion is incomparable. You lifted this piece of dirt and made him your devotee. Please guide me always O Lord.

  21. Love, Love and Love His creation with all our heart,
    Smile, Smile and Smile in the midst of battle of life.

  22. Krishna is to me the most adorable baby form of God whose smile lit up peoples lives, whose cute naughtiness stole hearts, whose all knowing innocence could see through and through his devotees hearts and minds and make them forget themselves in the bliss of His incomparable Love and make them His very own for eternity. To watch my Amma is to watch my Krishna. To lose myself to my Amma is to lose myself to my Krishna.

  23. Krishna represents the God of Universe.

  24. Krishna represents Mother, Father,
    Lover, Friend, Guru and more …

  25. Krishna was an incarnation of God. Krishna is a model of physical & spiritual qualities combined together. Pandavas & truth won because of Krishna. Though seems feminine, did so many wonders.
