Arjuna bows to the Vishvarupa of Vishnu-Krishna. Vishvarupa (Sanskrit: विश्वरूप, romanized: Viśvarūpa, lit. 'universal form'), [1] also spelt as Vishwaroopa and known as Virāḍrūpa, is an iconographical form and theophany of a Hindu deity, most commonly associated with Vishnu in contemporary Hinduism.
Sri Krishna Kirtana consists of 418 Bengali padas (verses) and 133 (total 161, 28 shlokas are repeated twice) Sanskrit shlokas, which were also probably composed by the poet. [1] Among these 418 verses, 409 verses have the name of the author in them.
Krishna (/ ˈ k r ɪ ʃ n ə /; Sanskrit: कृष्ण, IAST: Kṛṣṇa pronounced [ˈkr̩ʂ.ɳɐ] (Classical Sanskrit) and [kr̩ʂ.ɳɐ́] in (Vedic Sanskrit) is a Hindu deity worshipped across many traditions of Hinduism in a variety of different perspectives.
The name "Krishna" originates from the Sanskrit word kṛṣṇa, which means "black", "dark" or "dark blue". [34] The waning moon is called Krishna Paksha, relating to the adjective meaning "darkening". [34] Some Vaishnavas also translate the word as "All-Attractive", though it lacks that meaning in Sanskrit. [35]
Jyotisar, on the bank of Jyotisar Sarovar wetland, is a Hindu pilgrimage site in the city of Kurukshetra in Haryana state of India.According to Hindu tradition, Krishna delivered the sermon of Bhagavad Gita – the doctrine of Karma and Dharma to his wavering friend Arjuna to guide him to resolve his ethical dilemma [1] [2] and revealed his vishvarupa (universal form) to him.
Another notable bouquet of glory of Krishna was the poems in Sanskrit, possibly by Bilvamangala from Kerala, the Balagopala Stuti ("The Childhood of Krishna") [38] and the Shree Krishna Karnamrutam (also called Lilasuka, "Playful parrot"), that later became a favorite text of the Bengali acharya Chaitanya Mahaprabhu.

It is also the oldest Bengali narrative poem of Krishna legend. [1] It was composed between 1473 and 1480. [ 2 ] The long poem is a translation of the 10th and 11th cantos of the Bhagavata Purana ; a part of Vishnu Purana and the story of Ramayana is also incorporated here.
