Krishna's Mercy
22 October 2025
This book presents an extensive interview between a reporter and a devotee, focusing on the historical and spiritual significance of the Govardhana Puja festival in the Vedic tradition. This festival commemorates the time when Shri Krishna, as a young child, convinced the residents of Vrindavana to worship Govardhana Hill instead of the powerful demigod Indra, who was traditionally worshiped for rain. Outraged by this slight, Indra retaliated by sending a devastating flood, which Krishna thwarted by lifting the entire hill with one finger to serve as a massive umbrella, thereby protecting the residents and cows. The discussion emphasizes that this pastime was meant to curb Indra's pride, affirm Krishna as the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and illustrate the superiority of devotional service (bhakti-yoga) over all other kinds of worship, a lesson that continues through the annual celebration of Govardhana Puja.
