Krishh is Bliss, Na is Its Form
B DAYITA MADHAVA MAHARAJ

We cannot know Krishna through arrogance because He is the unchallengeable Truth.Allow yourself to experience the grace of Krishna. To know Krishna, surrender yourself with all humility . Be inquisitive in a reverential manner, about all that is spiritual. Serve with an attitude of surrender, unto the spiritual master who has knowledge of the spiritual.The significance of Krishna is His remarkable divine personality . The scriptures define the etymological meaning of Krishna: the word `Krishna' is composed of the root krishh, meaning bhu, the shelter of all existence, and the word na, meaning nivriti, or the form of supreme bliss. Combined, they form the word Krishna that signifies Param Brahmn, the Supreme Absolute Truth. Krishna means self-existing bliss.
When Krishna exhibits His aspect of being smaller than the smallest, Krishna is known as Parmatama. When he exhibits His aspect of being greater that the greatest, He is known as Brahmn. Then again, reconciling both His anu (microcosmic) and vibhu (macroscopic) natures and accepting a medium-sized form, Krishna performs wonderful pastimes, or lila, of infinite variety.
Krishna encompasses the largest, the smallest, the middle and everything else in existence. The gyani experiences that non-dual tattva as Brahmn, the yogi realises Him as Parmatama, and the devotee, bhakta, sees Him as Bhagwan.Bhagwan manifests infinite pastimes in infinite forms, among which Krishna is His original form, svayam-rupa.
