Him who’s Leelas keep all of the three (3) Lokas fascinated - Krishna, resides in the heart of each Gokul Vaasi. This idol captures one of his most sung Leelas - Kaliya Mardan. It is said that Kaliya - a giant Naga, sought shelter in the Yamuna upon being banished by the Garuda from his place of origin. The poisonous serpent happened to challenge Krishna, when the ball his friends and he were playing with, fell into the river. After a long tussle between the two, Bala Krishna performs a dance of victory after defeating the Naga on the top his head, balancing himself gracefully on one leg, he wears a Mor-Mukuta, demonstrating his protection to the people of Gokul (symbolic of his devotees) with Abhaya Mudra and holding Kaliya by his tail, exercising control over the negative.
