Krishna is the most endearing and ennobling

character in Indian mythology. He is at once the

cO.mmon cowherd engaging the milk-maids in play

rul banter and the supreme intellectual engaged in

the exposition of the Gila philosophy.

Krishna has a particular appeal for children

because he is one of them as no other divine is·

Krishna the boy is mischievous; he is naughty.

He has irrepressible energy for innumerable esca

pades. He is no prig; he is no puritan. He has

divine powers. But he humanises them and remainsa boy. This powerful human element is the secret

of Krishna's universal popularity. He is secular

even as he is sacred, and so he remains throughout

his life. That is why Krishna becomes a Jiving '

presence to all children who have listened to the

storics about him.
