This bhajan is so old and sung by our grandparent Shri Bansidhar Veer (Multan, Punjab before Partition of India and in Palwal, Haryana in India)
In 3228 BCE (Mathura, India) a child was born who was destined to reshape the spiritual and temporal destiny of mankind—Sri Krishna. In his 125 years of life, Sri Krishna made an indelible impression upon mankind's collective consciousness, re-educating the world about devotion and dharma as well as the ultimate reality.
Lord Krishna's teachings are suitable for everyone. He did not come just for the sake of a particular section of society. He showed everyone. His life was a perfect example of how to remain unscorched in the midst of worldly fire.
He shows how to succeed in life while remaining in the midst of obstacles. Shri Krishna does not advise us to turn away from our relationships in order to attain Self-realization. He explains that we should be free from all attachments while still maintaining loving relationships and upholding our family responsibilities.
Infact, Shri Krishan was only one who has been considered to be Avtari of Lord Vishnu (Naryana) while other remain consider as Avtar of Lord Vishnu. (Avtari means full appearance of Lord)
Janmashtami or the birthday of Lord Krishna has a huge spiritual significance in Hinduism. It is believed that lord Vishnu reincarnated in the form of lord Krishna on the auspicious day of Janmashtami. Lord Krishna was born in the darkness of night, inside a cell of a jail where His parents were locked up by Cruel King Kansa. It is said that at the moment of his birth, all the guards slept off, the chains broke and the barred doors gently flew open.
