About The Book
Krishna's Secret is an extract from his book, 7 Secrets of Vishnu, reminds us that Krishna is an unusual God—the most unconventional, whether as an endearing cowherd or the astute charioteer in the Mahabharata.
His mother is not his real mother; his beloved is not his wife…; his lovemaking is not really lovemaking; his war does not really war. There is always more than meets the eye.
And so, only Krishna, of all the avatars, sports a smile, a mischievous, meaningful smile. There is always more than meets the eye when Krishna is around.
My Thoughts
Devdutt simplifies and presents Lord Krishna's life story, as well as the accompanying values and lessons, in this short book. Perfect for individuals who prefer simple text over time-consuming religious epics.
For me, this book seems to be like a “headline” of Krishna’s life. Nothing is discussed in detail. Too short and too simple for the character who is known to be a “Brilliant Political Mind”.
In his writing, the author employs soft, Whatsapp forward-type analogies. And the information presented is not novel.
Overall, it is just a time pass, boring to read.
