Shrinathji is an important swarup representing Krishna at the age of seven. In the 15th century, perhaps, as a reaction to the increasingly ascetic direction in which Hinduism was heading towards, a new off-set of Krishna worship called Pushti Marga, the Path of Grace, was born in Vraja, in North India.
Vallabhacharya, the founder of Pushti Marga, stressed worship through the joys of life and living, and devotion to Krishna as the royal child Shrinathji through song, dance, dress, decoration and painting. The swarup of Krishna as Shrinathji is enshrined in a temple in Nathdwara, Rajasthan.
Mara Ghatma Shrinathji is a unique musical collection for all Krishna devotees and music lovers. New and popular compositions with peace giving lyrics have been encompassed in this album and great singers like Lata Mangeshkar and Jagjit Singh have graced the album with their melodious voices.
Daily recitation and listening of this album will invite Lord Krishna to one's inner most sanctum that brings supreme peace and joy to the devotee, thus making one a Krishna Das (the servant of Lord Krishna).
