The spirited dynamism of his powerful movement is perfectly captured.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe background\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe rain god Indra, angered by the arrogance of young Krishna, sent a terrible storm cloud to destroy both Krishna and all the human and livestock of his village of Vrindavan in northern India. When Krishna noticed what was brewing over the village, he raised the entire hill of Govardhana (about 10 km long, 1 km wide and 50 m high) only with the little finger of his left hand and in this way created a shelter for all for seven days. Indra then recognized a high god in Krishna, who has been one of the most popular deities of Hinduism ever since. Even today, the elongated hill of Govardhana is considered sacred and is an important pilgrimage site.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUnstoppable\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHow often do we have to fight distractions of all kinds that try to hinder our progress?
