Imported quote 18241 He's the cause of all causes. So this purana-purusa, Krsna, He's the oldest. Advaitam acyutam anadim ananta-rūpam adyam purana-purusam nava-yauvanam ca [Bs 5.33]. That is Krsna. You'll never see Krsna's picture as old man. No. Has anyone seen Krsna as old man? No. Nava-yauvanam ca, always fresh, youthful life. The same. You have seen the picture of Kuruksetra battle. Krsna was sitting... At that time He was great-grandfather, but He was looking like twenty years old, young boy. That is Krsna.
(More...) The force of Kṛṣṇa's youth was combined with His beautiful smile, which defeated even the beauty of the full moon. He was always nicely dressed, in beauty surpassing even Cupid, and He was always attracting the minds of the gopīs, w Krsna is beautiful at His different ages-namely, His childhood, His boyhood and His youth. Out of these three, His youth is the reservoir of all pleasures and is the time when the highest varieties of devotional service are acceptable. At that age, Krsna is full with all transcendental qualities and is engaged in His transcendental pastimes. Therefore, devotees have accepted the beginning of His youth as the most attractive feature in ecstatic love.
(More...) At this age Krsna is described as follows: "The force of Krsna's youth was combined with His beautiful smile, which defeated even the beauty of the full moon. He was always nicely dressed, in beauty surpassing even Cupid, and He was always attracting the minds of the gopis, who were thereby always feeling pleasure."
