In the Fourth Chapter of the Bhagavad-gita Krishna tells Arjuna that both He and Arjuna had had many births before and that He (Krishna) could remember all of them and that Arjuna could not. ![]() But the Vedic histories, the Puranas and Mahabharata, relate human histories which extend millions and billions of years into the past.įor example, from these literatures we are given the histories of Krishna’s appearances and disappearances millions and billions of years ago. The modern historians of this earth cannot supply historical evidences of events that occurred before 5,000 years ago, and the anthropologists say that 40,000 years ago Homo sapiens had not appeared on this planet because evolution had not reached that point. As far as we, the followers of Vedic civilization, are concerned, we accept the Vedic history of the whole universe, which consists of different planetary systems called Svargalokas, or the higher planetary system, Martyalokas, or the intermediary planetary system, and Patalalokas, or the lower planetary system. There are various classes of men in the world who speak of God in different ways, but according to Vedic literatures and according to the great acaryas, the authorized persons versed in the knowledge of God, in all ages, like acaryas Sankara, Ramanuja, Madhva, Visnusvami, Lord Caitanya and all their followers by disciplic succession, all unanimously agree that Krishna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. That is the import of the familiar saying, “God is great.” No one is equal to the Godhead, and no one is greater than Him. From the very moment of His appearance to the moment of His disappearance, every one of His activities is unparalleled in the history of the world, and therefore anyone who knows what we mean by Godhead will accept Krishna as the Supreme Personality of Godhead. He stayed on this earth for 125 years and played exactly like a human being, but His activities were unparalleled. Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is an historical person who appeared on this earth 5,000 years ago. But we have never seen any one person who is unlimitedly and simultaneously wealthy, powerful, famous, beautiful, wise and unattached, like Krishna, in the history of humanity. We have seen many rich persons, many powerful persons, many famous persons, many beautiful persons, many learned and scholarly persons, and persons in the renounced order of life unattached to material possessions. These opulences of the Godhead are delineated by Parasara Muni, a great Vedic authority. One who is in possession of all six of these opulences at the same time, who possesses them to an unlimited degree, is understood to be the Supreme Personality of Godhead. ![]() So from practical experience we can observe that one is attractive due to 1) wealth, 2) power, 3) fame, 4) beauty, 5) wisdom, and 6) renunciation. Similarly, if someone is very powerful, he also becomes attractive, and if someone is very famous, he also becomes attractive, and if someone is very beautiful or wise or unattached to all kinds of possessions, he also becomes attractive. How is it one can be all-attractive? First of all, if one is very wealthy, if he has great riches, he becomes attractive to the people in general. Outside the principle of all-attraction, there is no meaning to the word Godhead. In other words, Krishna is the Godhead because He is all-attractive. How is that? Because He conforms in exact detail to descriptions of the Supreme Being, the Godhead. The immediate answer is that Krishna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In these Western countries, when someone sees the cover of a book like Krsna, he immediately asks, “Who is Krishna? Who is the girl with Krishna?” etc. Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is an historical person who appeared on this earth in India 5,000 years ago.
