About this image
Childhood innocence has a theological weight in the Krishna tradition that it carries nowhere else in world religion. God chose to be a child -- not as a temporary phase to endure before reaching adulthood, but as a permanent lila, a divine play that expresses something essential about the nature of the divine. The child Krishna is not less God than the adult Krishna. If anything, the Vaishnava poets suggest he is more God, because a child's spontaneity and freedom from calculation are closer to the divine nature than adult self-consciousness. In this image, young Radha and Krishna share that spontaneity in a Vrindavan village scene bursting with life. The colors are deliberately bright -- the kind of saturation that matches a child's perception of the world, where every color is vivid and every moment is now. A cow peeks around a corner, curious about the music. Flowers bloom in unlikely places. The sky is the impossible blue of childhood memory. Surdas, the blind poet of Braj, wrote hundreds of pads (verses) about exactly this scene -- the divine children at play, unaware that they are being watched by devotees across five centuries. This wallpaper joins that tradition of watching and smiling. Download this HD wallpaper for personal use.
