- If we have got faith in the words of Krsna - they are very openly spoken - then our life becomes successful. But we have no faith in Krsna. They take Krsna as ordinary human being
- If you consider Krsna as ordinary human being, then you are missing the point

- Krsna is not an ordinary person but rather the Supreme Personality of Godhead - imperishable, immeasurable and without any material qualities but full of all spiritual qualities

- Krsna is taking birth as the son of Devaki or Mother Yasoda, but He's not taking birth exactly like us. That is described in the Srimad-Bhagavatam. When Krsna appeared, He did not come out or did not come out from the womb of Devaki
- Krsna says in Bhagavad-gita that His birth is not ordinary - janma karma ca me divyam - BG 4.9
- Krsna says, "I existed." That means Krsna existed as the Supreme Lord, not like us. Similarly, we existed also in the past as His servants

- One should not be influenced by the illusory energy and think Lord Krsna to be an ordinary human being
- One should not look on Lord Krsna as an ordinary human being, for He is the origin of all visnu-tattvas; nor should one regard the Supreme Lord as a demigod. All this is offensive

- One who thinks that Krsna is an ordinary person and misguides the reader by claiming that it is the impersonal Brahman within Krsna speaking, is doing the greatest injustice. BG 1972 purports

- Our knowledge is parampara. That Krsna says, whatever He says is all right. Krsna is not common man, avajananti mam mudha manusim tanum asritam. He's not man at all He's Supreme Personality of Godhead. Abhijnah. Experience in everything
R

- The Asuras wrongly think that Krsna took birth like an ordinary child and passed away from this world like an ordinary man. Such asuric conceptions are rejected by persons in knowledge of the Supreme Personality of Godhead
- The atheists, who consider Krsna an ordinary man, may in this way (when Krsna Himself speaks about Himself) come to know that Krsna is superhuman, that He is sac-cid-ananda-vigraha - the eternal form of bliss and knowledge. BG 1972 purports
- The common materialistic conditioned souls speculate that the Lord (Krsna) is one of them. Out of their ignorance they think that the Lord is affected by matter, although He is unattached
- The comparison made here (in CC Madhya 20.384) is very interesting. Krsna does not grow like an ordinary human being, even though He exhibits His pastimes of childhood, boyhood and pre-youth
- The contamination of the material world does not affect the Supreme Godhead. Krsna therefore says in the Bhagavad-gita that those who are rascals and fools think of Him as an ordinary human being, not knowing His param bhavam
- The Gita is above such literature (of the common man). No mundane book compares with the Bhagavad-gita. When one accepts Krsna as an ordinary man, the Gita loses all importance. BG 1972 purports
- The Lord (Krsna) says in the Bhagavad-gita that foolish persons consider Him to be one of the human beings without knowing the intricacies of His movements
- The Lord is kaivalya, and for Him there is no difference between matter and spirit because everything is created from Him. Therefore His quitting one sort of body or accepting another body does not mean that He is like the ordinary living being

- The Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krsna, the Supersoul in the hearts of all living entities, descended in His original form as a human being in the dynasty or family of Yadu
- The very conception of the Personality of Godhead as a human being is misleading. His (Krsna's) pastimes appear to be exactly like a human being's, but actually they are transcendental and without any tinge of material contamination

- There is a gulf of difference between the birth of Krsna and that of an ordinary child
- There is no distinction between Krsna's body and His soul, but because less intelligent men see Krsna as a human being, they deride Him. They cannot imagine how a person like Krsna could be the origin of everything
- They (atheists) are always very eager to establish that Lord Krsna was an ordinary man who was killed by a hunter due to His (Krsna's) many impious acts in plotting to kill the sons of Dhrtarastra and Jarasandha, the demoniac kings of the earth
- They (ordinary men) incorrectly think that Krsna is like themselves and that He embraces the gopis just as an ordinary man embraces a young girl

- They (the cowherd boys) were astonished to see that they were completely free from the attack of the blazing fire and that the cows were saved. They secretly thought that Krsna must be not an ordinary boy but some demigod
- They (the sahajiyas) do not try to understand Radha-Krsna through the channel chalked out by Caitanya Mahaprabhu and Gosvamis. We must know. Radha-Krsna is not ordinary. Radha krsna-pranaya-vikrtir hladini sakti
- This (accepting Krsna as an ordinary human being) is condemned in the Bhagavad-gita (BG 9.11): Fools deride Me when I descend in the human form. They do not know My transcendental nature as the Supreme Lord of all that be

- This is His original form (of a human being), but because He looks like a human being, those with a poor fund of knowledge consider Him an ordinary man
- Those who are fools and rascals think of Me as an ordinary man, - Krsna says in the Gita. He is different from everything in this world. He is anadi, without cause
- Those who are in the darkness of ignorance conclude that the Lord's birth and activities in the material world are similar to those of the ordinary living being. Such imperfect conclusions cannot give anyone liberation

- To think of Him (Krsna) as an ordinary man is the grossest type of ignorance
U
- Understanding Krsna's plan to kill him (Satadhanva), he immediately went to take shelter of Krtavarma. But Krtavarma said, "I shall never be able to offend Krsna & Balarama, for They are not ordinary persons. They are the Supreme Personality of Godhead"
- Unlike the ordinary human being, Lord Krsna clearly says that He completely knows what happened in the past, what is happening in the present, and what will happen in the future. BG 1972 purports
W
- We accept Krsna as God. Even by His activities He is not ordinary. He had to meet so many dangers before He was accepted God. From childhood, when He was baby, just three months old, He had to struggle. He had to struggle with His position as God
- We cannot compare that Krsna's body and my body, this body, material, is the same. That is condemned in the Bhagavad-gita, avajananti mam mudha (BG 9.11): "Those who are fools, rascals, they deride at Me, thinking Me as ordinary human being."
- We should not misunderstand that Krsna is ordinary human being and He is enjoying like us. Completely different. Radharani is the manifestation of Krsna's pleasure potency. Parasya saktir vividhaiva sruyate

- When Lord Krsna was present in the earthly Vrndavana, Lord Brahma, taking Him to be an ordinary cowherd boy, wanted to test His potency. Therefore Lord Brahma stole all the calves and cowherd boys from Krsna and hid them by his illusory energy
- When the Supreme Personality of Godhead - Rama or Krsna - descends to act transcendentally for our benefit, we should not consider Him an ordinary human being
- Whenever Krsna incarnates personally or as a devotee, Mayavadi philosophers accept Him as an ordinary human being. This is condemned in the Bhagavad-gita
- While remaining unaffected by the material modes of nature, He creates, maintains and dissolves the whole cosmic manifestation. We wrongly look upon Krsna & Balarama as ordinary human beings, just as whirling men see the whole world whirling around them
