Krishna is the most endearing divine hero of India in human form. Krishna's story is full of exciting events all through his life. Wicked men, women and creatures are often up against him but he defeats them all. Whether as a cowherd or as a prince he commands love as well as respect from all.Kamsa imprisoned his sister Devaki and her husband Vasudeva because it was prophesied that one of their children would cause his death. He slew seven children born in captivity, but Krishna, the eighth one, survived because Vasudeva carried the newborn baby secretly to find shelter with the cowherd community. Krishna grew up there as a son of Nanda and Yashoda and the brother of Balarama.Krishna's life can be divided into three periods. His childhood in Gokul and Brindavan, his youth in Mathura when he killed Kamsa and restored the throne to Kamsa's father, and his later years as friend and guide of the Pandavas.He is most known for his role in the Mahabharata and his teachings during the war which form the text of the Bhagavad Gita.
