Krishna, one of the most beloved characters of the Hindu pantheon,
has been portrayed in many lights: a god-child, a prankster, a
model lover, a divine hero, an exemplary ruler, and the Supreme
Being. In _The Complete Life of Krishna_, Vanamali, a leading
Krishna expert from a long line of prominent Krishna devotees,
provides the first book in English or Sanskrit to cover the
complete range of the avatar's life. Drawing from the Bhagavad
Purana, the Bhagavad Gita, the Mahabharata, and India's sacred oral
tradition, Vanamali shares stories from Krishna's birth in a
dungeon and early days as a merry trickster in Vrindavana, through
his time as divine ruler at Dwaraka, to his final powerful acts as
the hero Arjuna's charioteer and guru in the Kurukshetra war. She
explains how Krishna became a mahayogi, the greatest of all yogis,
and attained complete mastery over himself and nature. By
integrating the hero-child with the mahayogi, the playful lover
with the divine ruler, Vanamali shows how the stories of Krishna's
life are expressed with such simplicity and humor that they enable
anyone--man, woman, or child--to see the wisdom of his teachings.
This complete biography of the man who was also a god provides a
valuable meditative tool allowing Krishna's lessons to illuminate
from within.
