“स्मितं कृष्णस्य लोकेषु आनन्दस्य प्रतीकं स्मृतम्।”
The gentle smile of Lord Krishna has always symbolized divine joy, compassion, and the playful nature of the Supreme. Devotees across India often say that Krishna does not merely reside in temples, he responds to love. In many sacred temples, worshippers believe that the idol of Krishna actually appears to smile during moments of deep devotion, prayer, or celebration.
