When did Krishna die?

After the physical death of Shri Krishna, his whole physical body dissolves into the five elements of the earth, but his heart was normal and the heartbeat was absolutely normal the same as the living person.

His heart is still alive and present in a temple named Jaganathpuri temple. His heart is secured into a wooden image of Lord Krishna and still alive.

Jagannath puri temple is located in Puri Odisha. This temple is itself a treasure of mysteries where science is failed to understand. Some well-known mysteries about the temple is as below-

The wooden statue of Lord Krishna is changed after every 12 years and during this time the whole Puri has a blackout.
During the night Pujari of the temple changes the wooden statue of the Lord Krishan. Pujari closed his eyes and transferred godly parts from the old wooden statue to the new wooden statue.
This process is repeated after twelve years.
When you enter the temple you will not hear any sound of the sea. But when you come out a step from the temple you will hear the sea sound very clearly.
It is very common to view birds sitting on the top portion of a temple. But you will see no bird on the top of the temple. No birds fly on the top of the temple, why, nobody knows.
There is a flag on the top of the temple. This flag always flows in the opposite direction of the air and why this happens, no answer.
You will see no shadow of the temple at any time day or night.
The flag which is situated on the 45^th floor of the temple daily changed. It is believed that if it is not changed then the temple will be closed for the next 18^th years. This is why it is a must to change the flag daily.
There is a Sudarshan Chakra on the top of the temple. The Sudarshan Chakra is seemed to see you from all the directions.
Daily Prasad is prepared in seven clay pots in the kitchen of the temple. All the 7 clay pots are placed one after another. The Prasad kept in the topmost pot is cooked first of all and then the next one.
This Prasad always remains sufficient for the devotees of Shree Krishna, but when the doors of the temple closed the Prasad automatically finished.

Lord Krishna – Is Krishna really a God?

Yes, Lord Krishna is really a God and nothing to surprise in this. If God can send his so many clones in the form of humans then why he cannot come on the earth in the image of a human being.

Moreover, when his beautiful creation – earth feels trouble and pains due to the devils, God comes on the earth to save his earth and to protect the earth from the devils, says Geeta.

That’s it the Story of Krishna the Lord of Hindus and Hinduism. There are a lot of Shri Krishna temples all over the country India. Some of the temples are so popular and mystical that even science fails to understand the mystery.
