Colours of Krishna, by
GS
Rajan, looks at different relationships with Krishna - the relationship of
his mother Yashoda, his love Radha, the eternal devotee Meera, the hundreds of
gopis of Gokul and the thousands of devotees of Braj. This album is a musical
journey through passion - the passion of forbidden love, the frenzy of ecstatic
infatuation out of wedlock, the madness of the heart.
Krishna is easily the most contemporary figure in Indian mythology, who's
irresistible attraction was symbolized by his mesmerizing flute. To devotees,
Krishna inspires love. "He gives to passion a dignity and pride which makes
loving a celebration of life," says the CD press release. "In Krishna,
God expressed himself in a completely human form, from within and without. He is
Bhava - feeling, emotion. By celebrating the Life of Krishna, we learn to
celebrate every bhava of life to the fullest - passion, love, longing, pining,
yearning. And that is the purpose of our existence - to just be - to celebrate
our humanness, our desires and aspirations, joys and sorrows, relationships and
challenges."

1. Come Hither My Love
2. Insane In Love
3. Intoxicated By The Divine
