Chapter 10 – Krishna as God
_So his going to Darpudi’s rescue in response to her prayers is baseless……[Page 104]_
Krishna is made out to be savior of Darpudi’s honor through supernatural powers when he was not there at the time of her dishonor therefore could simply do nothing.
_His first act in this part of his life was assassination_ _of his maternal uncle Kamsa.__Assassination is not too strong a term for it……[Page 105]_
Krishna committed a heinous crime and one of many, but got away because the Brahmin editors have made his character exactly like their own.
_Krishna is no less famous for his abductions. He carries away Rukhmini a day before the_ _time fixed before her marriage to Sisupula….. Any by right of forcible seizure conquest,_ _he adds 16,000 women from the harem of Naraka to the list of his wives……[Page 105]_
Krishna would be in the Guiness Book of World Records today for the numbers of women kidnapped by a single man ever and for producing only 180,000 sons. _The champion boozer of the city is the Lord’s own half brother, Balarama. Rarely is_ _toddy absent from his hand….The Lord himself is neither a vegetarian nor a teetotaler._ _Men as well as women amongst the Yadavas were addicted to drinking……[Page 107]_
Meat eating and binge drinking was the norm and the dark Lord himself partook in all of it happily without which it would be impossible to have the energy to satisfy 16,000 women.
_The whole Krishna saga is a magnificent example of a true believer can manage to_ _swallow, a perfect setting of opportunism for the specious arguments of the Gita….[Page_ _109]_
In fact Sitanath Tattavabhushan a historian of Hinduism comments, “If all that the Mahabharata and Puranas say about him [Krishna] is true, he cannot have been the incarnation of God”. It could not be clearer than that!
