The book God Is Blue, written by Sripad Bhaktivedanta Avadoot Swami, contains mesmerizing tales of Lord Krishna from his early years to his final day, as well as the sacred texts that relate to them. By eliminating the materialistic reality of the earth, which prevents the human soul from reaching the spiritual regions close to God, the author hopes to sever the connection between the devotee and their deity. Reconciling the human soul with the divine is the key to the fulfillment of this human existence. Although Lord Krishna lives in his spiritual abode and appears to be far away from us, he lives in the human heart. This book translates several challenging sacred Sanskrit texts in a way that is simple for readers to grasp and makes the lessons of these texts applicable. The author details the true spiritual meanings behind several noticeable aspects of Lord Krishna's existence. Please read the aforementioned book for more information.

I adored the endearing baby image of Lord Krishna on the cover, which also supports the title of the book since Lord Krishna is frequently portrayed as having a bluish complexion or as having skin that resembles a sapphire, as the author noted in this book. Because knowing God is equal to loving him, the author's main goal in writing this book is to help readers understand God by learning about him and his true nature. In my opinion, this book did the best job of ensuring that readers fall in love with God. Several tales about Lord Krishna were told by the author, some of which included passages from the Bhagavad Gita. Although I had already read or heard many of the tales in this book, the author did so in a way that was not only entertaining to read but also simple to comprehend. The author covered every angle and referenced nearly all the existing texts about Lord Krishna.

This novel can only be loved; there is nothing to dislike about it. This book does more than simply state the facts. As a reader, I can tell that the author's love and passion for God are evident throughout the entire book, which enhances its beauty and renders it flawless.

I admire the author's creative writing abilities, which persuade readers to comprehend and adore God. This book is further made interesting by the numerous stunning images related to the topic that are scattered throughout each chapter. I heartily give this book a rating of 5 out of 5 stars because I adored it. Additionally, I found no grammatical errors in this book, which shows that it is exceptionally well-edited.

I've read a lot of books about Lord Krishna throughout my life, but this one stands out because of the author's skill at articulating the spiritual dimensions of Lord Krishna's tales. In light of this, I would suggest this book to anyone who wants to develop a closer relationship with Lord Krishna by learning more about his earthly life. One can also learn more about spirituality and the true nature of God by reading this book.
