Why only Krishna?
Is Hindu        & promotes
  religion     worship of many
Pantheistic?    equal Gods?
John Walters in his
    book ‘WORLD
     RELIGION’
sarcastically mentions

   A religion with
    high God to
     man ratio
One God for
every 3 men !!!
Let’s analyze
   what the
scriptures say
Lord Krishna
mentions in the
Bhagavad-Gita

I am the source of all spiritual
and material worlds. Everything
 emanates from Me. REF. Bg 10.8

In every
respect, I am
the source of

O conqueror of wealth,
there is no truth superior
 to Me. Everything rests
 upon Me, as pearls are
   strung on a thread.
       REF. Bg 7.7
vedaiç ca sarvair
 aham eva vedyo
  vedänta-kåd
    veda-vid
   eva cäham
By all the
 Vedas, I am
to be known.
Indeed, I am
the compiler
 of Vedänta,
and I am the
  knower of
  the Vedas.
   REF. Bg
    15.15
After seeing
    the
 universal
  form of
 Krishna,
Arjuna says

Arjuna said:
  You are the
    Supreme
 Personality of
 Godhead, the
ultimate abode,
the purest, the
Absolute Truth.
       …
… You are the
    eternal,
transcendental,
    original
  person, the
  unborn, the
   greatest.

All the great
 sages such as
 Närada, Asita,
  Devala and
 Vyäsa confirm
this truth about
 You, and now
You Yourself are
 declaring it to
       me.
REF. Bg 10.12-13
Just like the
design engineers &
   Bill Gates at
 MICROSOFT will
 best know about
    their latest
Likewise the
compiler of
   ALL the
    Vedic
 literatures
  will best
 know who
  Supreme
   Lord is.
All the Vedic
  literatures
are compiled
    by Srila
 Vyasadeva-
  who is the
    literary
 incarnation
    of God.
Srimad-
Bhagavatam

 is final
 work of
Vyasadeva
In Srimad-
  Bhagavatam
   Vyasadeva
   mentions
    various
incarnations of
 Supreme Lord
Vämana
Nåsiàha
Kurma
Buddha
Kapila
Varaha
Parashurama
Krishna
    &
Balarama
Rama
After mentioning
        various
   incarnations, he
         writes
ete cäàça-kaläù puàsaù
  kåñëas tu bhagavän
        svayam
indräri-vyäkulaà lokaà
 måòayanti yuge yuge
All of the
    above-
 mentioned
incarnations
  are either
   plenary
 portions or
portions of
the plenary
 portions of
 the Lord,
    but,
Lord Çré
Kåñëa is the
   original
Personality of
 Godhead.
All of them
  appear on
    planets
  whenever
  there is a
 disturbance
  created by
the atheists.
The Lord
incarnates to
  protect the
    theists.
REF. SB 1.3.28
THEN WHO ARE
THE DEVATAS?
Just like
  in our
 country
 there is
one prime
 minister
& so many
ministers.…
      Likewise
          …
The demigods are
        empowered
     administrators of
   material affairs. The
supply of air, light, water
and all other benedictions
 for maintaining the body
  and soul of every living
   entity is entrusted …
… to the demigods,
     who are
   innumerable
   assistants in
different parts of
 the body of the
     Supreme
  Personality of
     Godhead.
The Supreme Lord, who is
known as the yajïa-puruña, or
the personal beneficiary of all
sacrifices, is the master of all
the demigods, who serve Him
 as the different limbs of the
When Lord
   Kåñëa is
worshiped, the
demigods, who
 are different
 limbs of the
    Lord,
are also
 automatically
  worshiped;
   therefore
  there is no
separate need
to worship the
  demigods.

       devatäù
  taà taà niyamam

         svayä
Those whose intelligence
has been stolen by material
  desires surrender unto
 demigods and follow the
   particular rules and
  regulations of worship
  according to their own
          natures.

          aham
I am in everyone’s heart as the
   Supersoul. As soon as one
    desires to worship some
   demigod, I make his faith
  steady so that he can devote
himself to that particular deity.

Endowed with
such a faith, he
  endeavors to
   worship a
   particular
  demigod and
   obtains his
   desires. …
… But in
 actuality these
  benefits are
bestowed by Me
     alone.
 REF. Bg 7.22
antavat tu phalaà teñäà

    devän deva-yajo yänti
 mad-bhaktä yänti mäm api
Men of small
    intelligence
    worship the
  demigods, and
  their fruits are
    limited and
temporary. Those
 who worship the
  demigods go to
the planets of the
   demigods, …
but My
 devotees
ultimately
reach My
 supreme
  planet.
REF. Bg 7.23
Towards the end of Bhagavad-
gita Lord Krishna emphatically
             says:


  sarva-dharmän parityajya
   mäm ekaà çaraëaà vraja
  ahaà tväà sarva-päpebhyo
   mokñayiñyämi mä çucaù
Abandon all
   varieties of
  religion and
just surrender
   unto Me. I
 shall deliver
  you from all
      sinful
 reactions. Do
    not fear.
We
  summarize:
 There is one
 and only one
Supreme God.
There are
    many
incarnations
     , but
  Krishna is
 the original
   Supreme
 Personality
of Godhead.
This the
verdict of
Vyasadeva
 & other
  great
acharyas.
Krishna
   personally
  declares in
 Bhagavad-gita
that there is no
    TRUTH
  superior to
  Him & He is
 the source of
  everything.
Just like there is one
 prime minister & many
other ministers, likewise
            …
… there is one Supreme
God & many demigods &
 demigoddesses. (devi &
       devatas)
The demigods
      are
 innumerable
 assistants of
 the Supreme
Personality of
 Godhead and
      are
  empowered
administrators
  of material
Those who are
   devotees of
 other gods and
  who worship
them with faith
actually worship
Krishna ONLY,
but they do so in
 a wrong way.
Krishna
recommend
      s
worshiping
Him alone
(mäm ekaà
  çaraëaà
   vraja).
