He gave the world the Bhagavad-Geeta. He is the architect of Religion who lives forever in the hearts of the people of India. Because of his great Godly power, Lord Krishna is another of the most commonly worshipped deities in the Hindu faith. He is considered to be the Incarnation of Lord Vishnu. Shree Krishna delivered Bhagwad- Gita on battlefield to Arjun.
He, like Lord Rama, is also known for his bravery in destroying evil powers throughout his life. The Lord is usually depicted as playing the flute (murali), indicating spread of the melody of love to people.

Lord Krishna is also shown with his pet cow, his childhood favorite. Lord Krishna performed many divine sports (leela) as a child.
