Krishna ~ the supreme god

Krishna ji Worshipped as the eighth incarnation of the Hindu god Vishnu and supreme god as own right.  Worship of Krishna as the Supreme God Being known as Krishnaism. the worship of Krishna has also spread to the Western world and to Africa largely due to the International Society for Krishna Consciousness.

Krishna was born to Devaki and her husband, Vasudeva on 27 July 3112 BCE on Earth in the Yadava clan; a prince named Kansa. had wreaked quite a havoc. During his sister Devaki's wedding ceremony, a divine prophecy prophesied that the 8th son of Kansa's sister Devaki would kill Kansa.

Out of affection for Devaki, Kansa did not kill her outright. He did, however, send his sister and her husband (Vasudeva) and his father King Ugrasen to prison. Lord Vishnu himself later appeared to Devaki and Vasudeva and told them that he himself would be their eighth son and kill Kansa and destroy sin in the world. In the story of Krishna, the deity is the agent of conception and also the offspring. Because of his sympathy for the earth, the almighty lord Vishnu himself descended into the womb of Devaki and was born as her son, Vaasudeva. Kansa was uncertain of which of his 8 nephews would kill him, he brutally murdered all six of the children that Devaki had already given birth to by smashing their heads. When the 8th child was born, he was the reincarnation of Lord Vishnu, Lord Krishnva secretly carried the infant Krishna out of the prison and exchanged children with Nanda, a kinsman of Vasua. Vasudedeva, for his daughter. This daughter was yog-maya, an incarnation of Durga. She warned Kansa that his death had arrived in his kingdom and then disappeared. Krishna was adopted by Nanda and his wife Yasoda. The seventh son of Devaki known as Balarama.

krishna himself has explained in the bhagavad-gita that he is the Supreme personality of God. krishna known as Gopala, Narayana, aniruddha, Yug-purusha, kanaiya. In bhagwad gita he describe himself like "the Supreme Lord(krishna) resides eternally in his divine forms along with his eternal associates. All these forms of God are non-different from each other; they are various forms of the same one God. Whichever form of God one worships, upon God-realization, one goes to the abode of that form of God. Receiving a divine body, the soul then participates in the divine activities and pastimes of the Lord for the rest of eternity".
