Krishna.com needs your help. This project is maintained by donations, which have been reduced during the pandemic. People are suffering due to forgetfulness of their eternal relationship with God, Krishna. The cure for our material disease is reviving our Krishna consciousness, which offers lasting solutions to war, racism, inequality and environmental exploitation. Lord Krishna teaches that we are not these temporary material bodies, but eternal spirit souls, children of the same Father. That everything in creation belongs to the Creator, who provides for us all, and that we can live in harmony with each other by remembering Him and reciprocating in gratitude through loving acts of service. Peace in the world begins with peace in our hearts, realizing our interconnectedness as one big family under God.

Krishna.com is the website all about Krishna, sharing Lord Krishna's teachings on the Internet with over 20 million people, 3,700 people a day, in 238 countries and territories including remote island nations, from Svalbard near the North Pole, to Tonga in the South Pacific Ocean. If everyone reading this gave just a few dollars, we can continue to spread the teachings of Lord Krishna to all people with an Internet connection. Kindly consider supporting this very important service project. Click here to contribute.

About Krishna

When we say “Krishna,” we’re talking about God. Many people—especially outside of India—have never heard of Krishna before. They may think Krishna is a “different God” from the one they worship. But there’s only one Supreme Person, and Krishna is one of His names.

The name Krishna literally means “all-attractive.” So, not only is Krishna/God all-powerful and all-knowing, He’s also the most beautiful Person.

Why should that matter to us? We’re all parts of Krishna—as drops of ocean water are tiny samples of the ocean. The more we know about Krishna, the better we understand ourselves—and the easier it is to understand what life is for.
