Krishna's pastimes
|
Imported quote 15405 It is said that all the Pastime functions of Krishna are eternal, and that is confirmed in every Scripture. People in general cannot understand how Pastimes are being performed by Krishna, but Lord Chaitanya gave a comparable instance in the orbit of the Sun. According to Vedic astrological calculation, the twenty-four hours of a day and night are divided into 60 Dandas. The days are again divided into three thousand six hundred Palaas. So the Sun disc can be perceived in every 60 Palaas, and the time constitutes a Danda. Eight Dandas make one Parahara, and the Sun rises and sets within four Paraharas. Similarly, four Paraharas constitute the duration of night, and after that the Sun is again seen as risen. Similarly, all the Pastimes of Krishna can be seen in any of the Brahmandas, just like the Sun can be seen in its movement through three thousand six hundred Palaas.
