The encyclopedic information about Lord Sri Rama and Krsna is available in the Vedic literature.Lord Rama and Krsna are nondifferent.He is the Supreme Personality of Godhead or simply God.He has many names,Madhav,Kesav,Shyamsunder,Radhakanta,Giridhari etc.People from different religious backgroud,nations, call Him by different names,like,Buddha,Allah,Khuda,Christ,Jehovah,Yahaweh etc.God is sat,cit ananda vigraha.Vigraha means form.So His form is made of eternality,knowledge and bliss.Our vigraha is made of 'pancha bhooth' or the five material elements;earth,water,fire,air and ether.An infinitesimal particle of Lord Sri Rama's Supreme Spiritual Self called 'atma' energises and creates the consciousness in our material bodies.So we too like God is eternal.Only the body keeps changing.The spirit soul, 'atma' cannot be slain,burnt,cut into smaller particle or dissolved in liquid or dried.When the atma leaves the body,technically we call it death.Actually the body is dead to begin with,since it is made of inanimate matter.The presence of the soul animates the body.With every 'body' comes birth,death,disease and old age.The only way to avoid this cycle of birth and death is not to take birth.In other words to exist in our eternal spiritual self.Under the influence of 'maya'Lord Krsna's illusory potency we have forgotten that we, the 'atma' is part and parcel of Krsna(Rama),the Supreme Spirit.This forgetfullness is the cause of the present strife worldwide.Re-establishing our relat
