Reading Notes: Krishna Epified (Part B)

Reading Notes: Krishna Epified (Part B)

 I really enjoyed seeing the interplay between Brahma and Krishna. It is very interesting to see such a different perspective on the creator deity and I felt like this story did a good job of explaining why.  From what I have heard so far, the Hindu religion has a very passive view of Brahma, defining him as a creator unworthy of worship since he had forgotten the purpose of his creation. I think that Krishna, as the avatar of Vishnu and the maintainer of the world, represents the purpose of that creation to the people and is therefore worthy of worship.
