Five thousand years ago, two very special and beautiful brothers charmed the hearts of everyone in the little village of Vrindavana in India.

Balarama, the older of the two brothers, was as strong as an elephant, and had skin as white as a swan. Balarama liked to dress in dark blue colors. Krishna, the younger brother, wore a peacock feather in His curly long hair and dressed in yellow clothes that were as bright as lightning. Krishna's skin was as blue as a full monsoon rain cloud.

The brothers Krishna and Balarama were cowherd boys in a cowherd community, but They were somehow quite different from the other children.

Krishna was especially everyone's favorite; the darling of Vrindavana. No one could resist the charming way that Krishna would smile or speak or play.

Even when they were small none of Krishna's little friends had to fear any danger while playing, sitting, eating or running with the child.

Indeed, all the residents of Vrindavana prayed for the protection of their Krishna, as they prayed to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, with all His six opulences of strength, wealth, fame, beauty, knowledge and renunciation.
