The sun was low, painting the Yamunā’s waters gold, and the air smelled of fresh grass and fragrant kadamba flowers. The gopīs were laughing and talking, brushing the dust from their ghāghrās after the day’s tiring chores, when a new figure appeared among them. She was radiant, her every movement gentle and meek, every glance shy yet full of a hidden soul fire.

Krishna, in the form of a gopi, moved among them, his eyes twinkling with mischief. The gopīs felt a strange tug at their hearts, a mixture of delight and bewilderment. Something about this maiden was different…more luminous, more enchanting than any of them could describe. They whispered to each other, trying to guess her name, their voices soft with curiosity.

Krishna mimicked the gentle gestures of the gopīs, the sway of the ghāghrā, the tilt of the head, and yet there was an otherworldly grace that none of them could imitate. Every small movement; the brush of a hand, the lift of a foot, made the gopīs’ hearts flutter. Some giggled nervously, some felt a sudden shyness, and some could hardly contain the longing in their eyes.

“Who is she?” one gopi murmured, and in that question, Krishna delighted. He had hidden himself in plain sight, yet even in disguise, he could not hide the love and sweetness that radiated from his being.

The gopīs began to gather closer, enchanted by the new maiden. They admired her delicate movements, the gentle way she twirled a strand of her hair, the soft laugh that floated like the music of the Yamunā itself. “She moves as if the river itself dances with her,” one whispered. Another nodded, cheeks flushed, “And yet… there is something familiar. Something I cannot name.”

Krishna, in his playful disguise, let his eyes sparkle mischievously as he joined in their chatter. He mirrored their laughter, leaned in when they spoke, and even shyly accepted small compliments about his… or rather, her grace. Each interaction wove a web of joy, curiosity, and subtle longing. The gopīs were entranced, their hearts beating faster, their senses alight with delight at this mysterious companion.

Some tried to match her movements in dance, spinning and stepping lightly as she did, only to feel their feet falter and their hearts stir in inexplicable ways. Krishna’s subtle laughter rang out like a bell, though his disguise kept the source a secret. Every glance and gesture seemed to carry a divine tease, drawing the gopīs into a deeper, unspoken bhava.

As Surya’s golden light deepened into a warm evening glow, a hush fell over the grove. Among the gopīs appeared Radha, her presence luminous and soothing, yet her eyes quickened with a knowing anticipation. Krishna, sensing the moment, allowed the veil of illusion to shimmer and dissolve. Slowly, his true form emerged, radiant and dark, eyes sparkling with infinite love and mischief.

Radha’s gaze met his, and for a heartbeat, the world seemed to pause. She smiled, a mixture of wonder and gentle reproach. “So it was you,” she said softly, her voice carrying the sweetness of a thousand songs. The gopīs gasped in awe, realization dawning upon them. The playful maiden who had enchanted their hearts all afternoon was none other than Krishna himself.

Krishna bowed slightly, still smiling, and the gopīs’ delight shifted into a rapturous joy. They laughed, reaching out to touch his shoulders, their hearts overflowing with the sweetness of recognition. Radha stepped closer, her hand finding Krishna’s, their fingers entwining as if they had never been apart.

[gkgquotes]

मैंने आपको कई बार बताया है कि आपको इतना कठिन परिश्रम नहीं करना चाहिए कि आपके पास आध्यात्मिक कार्यों के लिए समय ही न बचे। आध्यात्मिक अभ्यास करना ही जीवन में सबसे अधिक महत्त्वपूर्ण चीज़ है। I have told you many times that you should not work so hard that you have no time left for your spiritual activities. The most important thing in life is to execute spiritual practices. Я много раз говорил вам, что вам не следует трудиться так напряженно, что у вас не остается времени на духовную деятельность. Самая важная вещь в жизни – это заниматься духовной практикой. #prabhupada #srilaprabhupada #spdailyquotes #krishna #devotion #bhakti #iskcon #vaishnav

[spdailyquotes]

They have forgotten Krishna, they have forgotten God, and I am trying to make them Krishna conscious. It is a very difficult job. I have to shed my blood three tons before I make on convinced in Krishna consciousness. That is my experience. I have to talk with them, especially these Europeans and Americans. They do not accept anything so blindly. Hong Kong, April 18, 1972 #prabhupada #srilaprabhupada #spdailyquotes #krishna #devotion #bhakti #iskcon #vaishnav

Relato de minishifting

Oii meus amores, tudo bem com vocês? Bom, hoje eu vim escrever um relato totalmente meu de um mini shifting que eu tive a alguns meses atrás, já que, quando eu li um relato de um/a divo/a eu me animei bastante. Bom Basicamente foi assim

De noite, antes de dormir

A noite, eu não vou mentir, eu basicamente não fiz muita coisa, só fiz a minha rotina matinal da noite, banho, skin care leve, leitura, meditação, e fui dormir com zero intensão de nada

Quando eu me deitei, eu ainda afirmei uma ou duas vezes que eu era o deus da minha realidade e que o shifting era tão natural para mim quanto respirar. Nada mais além que isso.

Não vou mentir que, antes de cair no sono, eu fiquei como se fosse em um estado de consciência avançada, por exemplo, quando você está quase dormindo e que você tem pura consciência disso, sabe?

Oque aconteceu durante?

Durante o meu sono, eu ainda tive uns sonhos completamente aleatórios, nada que eu precisasse lembrar. Eu acho que foram uns 3 ou 4 sonhos aleatórios.

Mas aí, eu senti um puxão.

Mini Shifting

O puxão foi a pior parte, não vou mentir, mas também a melhor parte, por que foi a parte em que eu percebi que aquilo definitivamente não era um sonho.

Em sonhos, você não deve sentir coisas, como por exemplo, dor física ou toques. E só o fato de eu ter sentido o puxão brusco no braço já é uma prova de que eu não estava sonhando.

Na hora em que eu abri os olhos, eu estava em um quarto inteiramente branco, que tinha uma janela enorme, uma cama branca (em que eu estava deitada), uma mesinha de estudos branca, uma cadeira branca, um único vaso de plantas preto, e uma porta branca. Na hora em que eu percebi que estava consciente, eu olhei para as minhas mãos e para minha pernas, procurando uma prova de que aquilo realmente estava acontecendo, e eu só falei: “Tá, eu shiftei, calma.”, por que ao meu lado tinha um bebezinho, que choramingava de leve, e eu precisava acalmar ele. Durante esse suposto shifiting, a minha visão estava parcialmente embasada, mas eu continuei acalmando o bebê, quando o quarto finalmente ficou branco, e eu não enxergava mais nada.

~ Gente, basicamente foi isso. Eu sei que eu fui muito burra de não ter ido até aquela porta ta? E eu me arrependo muito, mas aqui estamos.

Foi isso pessoalzinho lindo, beijos da Akarieh! ;)

I found this article, and it explores krishna genderfluidity and Noone ever told me there is a GALVA community where krishna is the patron God of queer people!

Article:

Fluid Masculinity: The case of Krishna

As Rama becomes more and more the icon of “virile Hinduism” and the symbol of a new kind of hegemonic, patriarchal, masculinity, so Krishna

Edit: Go check their website out!!!

It has so much interesting information! It's amazing I haven't researched much but it looks good

GALVA-108

Information & Support for LGBT Vaishnavas & Hindus

I don't support iskcon but this is amazing!
