This book presents a comprehensive account of Krishna's life, from his childhood mischief to his significant role in the Mahabharata war. It draws upon the Bhagavad Purana, the Bhagavad Gita, the Mahabharata, and India’s sacred oral tradition.

The author, Vanamali, an expert on Krishna and a descendant of devoted followers, offers the first complete English or Sanskrit biography of this revered figure. Beginning with Krishna's birth in a dungeon and his playful youth in Vrindavana, the story progresses to his reign as the divine ruler of Dwaraka and culminates in his pivotal acts as Arjuna’s charioteer and guru during the Kurukshetra war. Vanamali illustrates Krishna's transformation into a mahayogi, achieving mastery over himself and nature. By intertwining the playful aspects of Krishna’s character with his profound yogic wisdom, she presents his life stories with simplicity and humor, making the teachings accessible to all.
