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.

Krishna the Person

The Vedas say Krishna is the original person, but that He always appears young and attractive. He knows everything, He contains all of reality, and all other living beings are His inseparable parts. He is the all-powerful, supreme controller of all energies. He is known by different names in different cultures (such as God, Allah, and Jehovah, for example).

Sometimes Krishna sends His representatives—as saints, prophets, or His sons—to teach humankind about Him, and sometimes He comes Himself, as He did approximately 3000 B.C. He spoke the spiritual and philosophical teachings known as the Bhagavad-gita, which explains the essence of our spiritual identity and our relationship with God.
