Gods of good luck krishna and radha
In hinduism and indian mythology krishna is the eighth avatar or reincarnation of the god vishnu. Also krishna is one of the most popular hindu gods. With his foster parents krishna spent a happy life playing boyish pranks and seducing the gopis (cow girls) and other rustic maidens. They found his flute playing irresistible. Legend has it he may have had 16,000 wives. But his favorite was radha, daughter of his foster father.According to legend krishna was not only divine, but heroic as well. He is alleged to have defeated numerous dragons and monsters, and eventually as predicted, killed his half-uncle the tyrannical king kamsa. There are certain parallels between his birth and infancy and that of christs which tend to link these two important figures together. In art krishna is usually portrayed as blue-skinned.
