Glowing like the
glorious full moon, with hints of blue that beautify his aura, Krishna in this
divine marble statue removes all worldly thoughts from the mind, filling it
with affection, admiration, and reverence for his heavenliness. On a
masterfully sculptured bloomed lotus, Krishna sits regally, adorned in
Pitambara (yellow garments) and golden ornaments, with an ornate crown, marked
with a Mayura pankha. His magnificence has been presented brilliantly in the
statue- lotus eyes, fine nose, smiling delicate lips, and lithesome arms that
carry an ornate, bejweled Murli. Relishing in the nectar of Krishna’s flute and
his beauty, a Mayura sits behind him, pecking at a lotus petal, as if to
collect the drops of ambrosia that flow from the being of the celestial
Murli-Manohara.
