  • Krishna’s syama color and the reasons why some residents of Vrindavan are the color they are.
  • Syama is the color of enjoyment, specifically conjugal love.
  • Srimati Radharani’s golden color is the color of prema, specifically maha-bhava.
  • Syama-latas: blackish creepers–the gopis–whose complexions change in the close proximity of Krishna.
  • As Gauranga, not only is Krishna’s complexion different, but so is His bhava.

    Dear Maharaj,
    Thank you very much for explaining the meaning of Syama.

    In Brahama Samhita, it is also mentioned that sometimes Krsna is blue because of the intensity of his knowledge. Since In his Satcidanada form, Cid is personified by Krsnachandra (which represents knowledge – Sat is represented by Balaramaji who is ever expanding and represents eternity and Ananda is personified by Srimati Radharani (Hladini sakti).
