Sri Navamohana Krishna Perumal Temple Mathura

Legends Associated with This Shrine

But when Akroorar explained his act to Lord Krishna, Lord Krishna got angry that he has imitated his god and it was a big sin that the eyes of Akroorar have seen Sathyabama in a different way. And so Lord Krishna cursed Akroorar that in his next birth, he will be born as a blind person and Sathyabama will be born on earth as a normal girl. He also said that when they get the Gnana (knowledge inseparable from the total experience of reality, especially a total or divine reality) they will get rid of from their curse. As a result, Akroorar was born as a blind man named Surdas. But he had a great knowledge and was glorified as a great poet and musician. And he always praised Lord Krishna with his devotional songs and prayers. And finally, he got rid of from his sin.
