Chant the name of dark-hued Lord Krishna, who is Radha’s beloved. He steals the butter of our ignorance and is the origin of the Vedas and Upanishads. Destroyer of demons like Mura and Madhu, He is charming and plays His egoless devotees like a hollow flute, bestowing good fortune. Victory to Lord Sai who is none other than Lord Krishna.
