Lord Krishna is the Supreme Lord, declared in the Bhagavatam!

Verse 1.3.28: Please memorize this sloka.
If this sloka is not there, then Krishna cannot be recognized. Krishnadas Kaviraj Goswami writes in Caitanya Caritamrta, to clarify the position of Krishna, because He also descends as other avataras, He is avatari too.

All the different incarnations are His portions or portions of His plenary portions. Since sometimes incarnations come from Vishnu, who is Himself an expansion of Lord Krishna.

Krishna comes to protect the theists and to check the activities of the wrong people.

In some incarnations, complete power is not shown. Because that is the need there. But some other incarnations, Krishna displays higher potencies. But Krishna is the Supreme Controller. He says in the Bhagavad-gita that...bhoktaram yajna ....maheswaram.
Krishna is actually watching us all the time. We don't have love for Him, He has all love for us, since He is the father.

We are not orphans, we have our eternal Father, simply by chanting His Holy Names, we can beg Him to please accept us. We should concentrate on purifying our heart. We have to conquer our own mind, that is our main enemy, who comes through False ego, and the 6 bad habits of greed, anger, pride, lust, envy

We should memorize this sloka. Since this is Krishna Himself. We have to convey our message to Krishna that we are interested in Him, by chanting to Him sincerely, learning these Srimad Bhagavatam verses, thinking of Krishna all the time.

The problem is with us. It is with our mind. Actually we want maya, we don't want Krishna. We call for Him while chanting, but we are just seeing that the 16th round is over and that's it. Then why will He come to us. We need to be sincere is trying to remember Him all the time.

Again, the problem is with us. With our mind. We need to open up to accept the mercy which is always present for us through the teachings of acharya's.
