The lifting of the mount Govardhan by Krishna is a mystery to<br />
everyone. It is an unsolved miracle which no science can define. I<br />
have been asked about it by various scientists in various<br />
conferences across the globe but all I always have to say is that it is a<br />
miraculous deed of the Almighty which no Hindu text or scripture<br />
can define. However, the lifting of the mountain proved to be a vital<br />
turning point in the life of Krishna and his kinsmen.<br />

The Gopis and Gopas of Gokula were the lifeline of Krishna who was<br />
ready to do anything for their welfare. However, Krishna was an<br />
incarnation of Lord Vishnu who had taken birth to fulfill an<br />
important mission of killing the demon Kansa and establishing<br />
Dharma by playing a pivotal role in the Mahabharata war. Even after<br />
knowing the purpose of his life, Krishna always remained in two<br />
minds for the thought of leaving his people and going in search of his<br />
mission to faraway land. He always wondered whether his<br />
expedition was worth giving up his love and attachment with the<br />
people of Gokula? However, the lifting of the mount Govardhan<br />
turned a new leaf in the life of both Krishna and the people of Gokula<br />
as it kick started a new chapter in their lives. The incident was proof<br />
enough to affirm that Krishna was none other than God himself who<br />
lifted the mighty range on his little finger with great ease.<br />

The Govardhan Incident<br />
Once, a fierce storm hit Gokula when Krishna deviated the people of<br />
Gokula from conducting the puja offered in praise of Lord Indra. He<br />
convinced them to conduct Gopotsav instead as the cows and their<br />
cattle were their lifeline. Lord Indra got annoyed and brought about<br />
violent storms accompanied by torrent rains. This resulted in the<br />
river Yamuna overflowing and Gokula getting flooded completely.<br />
The people of Gokula started believing that it was due to not<br />
worshipping Lord Indra that such a calamity had hit them.<br />
As for Krishna, he got to rescue his people by hunting for a safe place<br />
to take shelter. Having complete knowledge of the terrain there,<br />
Krishna noticed an opening in the Govardhan parvat which led to a<br />
deep cavern inside. Krishna led all his people, along with their cattle,<br />
to the cavern but it was not large enough to accommodate everyone.<br />
Hence, Krishna lifted the mountain on his little finger and provided
shelter to the entire Gokula-dwellers. They took shelter here for a<br />
few days till the floods subsided completely.<br />
After this incident, Krishna soon left everything behind, including<br />
Radha, his childhood love, only to seek his purpose of life. Krishna<br />
could never forget Gokula and its people, but his duty towards<br />
mankind was above everything else and that is what mattered the<br />
most.<br />
Vrindavan whom he defeated and won over with his flute. These<br />
bulls were aggressive and violent and this one, whom Krishna<br />
invaded, was huge, extremely strong and quite dangerous as well. No<br />
one dared to go near him yet people bred him for his usefulness to<br />
them in supporting their financial needs.<br />
Krishna’s elder brother Balaram had always wanted to kill Hastin<br />
with a single punch. Balaram was the strongest among the boys of his<br />
age. One day, Krishna vouched to ride over Hastin with full<br />
determination in front of everybody. Everyone was shocked to hear<br />
about Krishna’s conquest. The time frame which he put for himself<br />
was before the arrival of the next Purnima (full moon).<br />
Every day, from that day onwards, Krishna would visit Hastin where<br />
he was tied to a tree. Since his childhood, Hastin had allowed only<br />
two people to go near him and attend him. Krishna asked for<br />
permission from them to spend some time with Hastin every day. He<br />
would sit there for hours and played his flute. He would even give<br />
Hastin to eat, he would mix jiggery and straw and give it to Hastin<br />
every day. This turned the bull docile in some time. After a few days,<br />
as time passed by, Krishna one day touched Hastin while playing his<br />
flute. This way, before the arrival of the next full moon, Krishna<br />
became quite friendly with the bull. No one, however, was aware of<br />
this act of Krishna.<br />
On the day of the full moon, Krishna was fully prepared to ride<br />

Hastin. Balaram, along with their other friends, did not want to put<br />
krishna’s life on risk and hence were ready to withdraw the bet but<br />
Krishna would not budge even after Radha trying to convince him<br />
not to do so. Soon after, Krishna approached the bull, played his<br />
flute, gave him his favorite dish to eat and stood close to him. He<br />
then asked Radha to come close to him and stand behind him in a<br />
manner that she could not be viewed by Hastin. Krishna soon leapt<br />
on his back along with Radha. Hastin got excited initially and began<br />
running here and there, but once his entire energy had gotten<br />
exhausted he calmed down and started grazing. This entire incident<br />
of Krishna riding the bull, Hastin, along with Radha turned out to be<br />
the talk of the town.<br />
