I was a witness to the life and times of Sri Krishna, one of Hinduism's
greatest avataras. It is before me that the Lord took birth and spent an
eventful youth, thereby connecting me intimately to all his past times.
I am the river Yamuna or kalindi,and I am blessed to be flowing through
the mystic land of Brajbhoomi - where little hamlets are still alive with
the Krishna legend. Mathura - a small town by my banks was transformed
into a place of faith after Krishna was born here. It was here that He
spread the message of overflowing love. Saint Vallabhacharya, who made
Mathura an important centre of the Bhakti cult expressed in his Madhurashtakam-
Every thing about Krishna's life in Mathura is sweet. His words, His smile,
His gait, His actions, and His very presence. AKHILAM MADHURAMOne of the
