God is the unconditional G.O.A.T.

God is the unconditional G.O.A.T.

In sports, there is always a debate about who is the G.O.A.T. - greatest of all time. The debate is based on statistics and arguments and counter arguments about the statistics citing the context in which the statistics were achieved by the players. The whole discussion is understood to be relative and subjective.

But a similar approach cannot be used to determine whether God is the G.O.A.T. or not. God is unconditionally the greatest. Everything, absolutely everything, happens by his sanction. There is no authority or power beyond him. Things don't happen to him, he orchestrates them all.

Thus, analyzing Krishna to determine, quantify, and qualify his greatness is an exercise born out of gross ignorance and stupidity. One should instead understand how his unconditional supremacy in all spheres is manifested in all his activities - whether they appear mystical and magnificent or mundane and ordinary.

Krishna's eternal supremacy and his activities like appearance in this world, disappearance from this world, and pastimes wihin this world, are not subject to any interpretations by anyone. The intelligence for such interpretations also comes from Krishna. Everything about Krishna is perfect and complete. We cannot understand this by arguments arising out of our pretty materialistic conceptions. We need to first understand fundamentals of spiriuality as the first step; understanding Krishna is the pinnacle of spiriuality, not a tea time discussion amongst spiritual illiterates.

Krishna is the unconditional G.O.A.T.
