भगवान् श्रीकृष्ण का पृथ्वीलोक पर अवतरण ऐसे समय में हुआ था; जब यहाँ पर अन्याय; अधर्म और अनीति का प्रसार हो रहा था। आसुरी शक्तियाँ प्रभावी हो रही थीं और संतों; ऋषि-मुनियों के साथ-साथ सामान्य जनों का जीवन दूभर हो गया था; यहाँ तक कि स्वयं पृथ्वी भी बढ़ते अत्याचारों से त्राहि-त्राहि कर उठी थी।मैंने जीवन भर कभी तर्क में विश्वास नहीं किया; क्योंकि तर्क अपने विरुद्ध स्वयं खड़ा हो जाता है। वह मानव बुद्धि का परम चतुर किंतु आदर्शहीन शिशु है। उसका जन्म भी उस समय हुआ था जब सत्य और झूठ की पहली लड़ाई हुई थी। तब से वह झूठ का ही प्रवक्ता रहा है। कभी-कभी वह सत्य के पक्ष में भी खड़ा हो जाता है। केवल इसलिए कि वह सत्य से प्रतिष्ठा पाता है और झूठ से जीवन रस।वस्तुत: सत्य को उसकी आवश्यकता भी नहीं है; सत्य तो स्वयं भाषित है; स्वयं प्रमाण है। कभी-कभी वह बादलों के घेरे में आ जाता है; तब हम उसे छिपता हुआ देखते हैं। वास्तव में यह हमारा दृष्टि भ्रम है। बादलों के छँटते ही उसकी ज्योति अपने स्थान पर स्वतः चमकती दिखाई देने लगती है। कृष्ण के अनगिनत आयाम हैं। दूसरे उपन्यासों में कृष्ण के किसी विशिष्ट आयाम को लिया गया है। किंतु आठ खंडों में विभक्त इस औपन्यासिक श्रृंखला ‘कृष्ण की आत्मकथा’ में कृष्ण को उनकी संपूर्णता और समग्रता में उकेरने का सफल प्रयास किया गया है। किसी भी भाषा में कृष्णचरित को लेकर इतने विशाल और प्रशस्त कैनवस का प्रयोग नहीं किया है।यथार्थ कहा जाए तो ‘कृष्ण की आत्मकथा’ एक उपनिषदीय कृति है। ‘कृष्ण की आत्मकथा श्रृंखला के आठों ग्रंथ’ नारद की भविष्यवाणी दुरभिसंधि द्वारका की स्थापना लाक्षागृह खांडव दाह राजसूय यज्ञ संघर्ष प्रलय Customer Reviews 4.5 out of 5 stars 62 4.6 out of 5 stars 86 4.4 out of 5 stars 73 4.3 out of 5 stars 70 4.5 out of 5 stars 132 Price ₹27.49₹27.49 ₹29.50₹29.50 ₹27.49₹27.49 ₹29.50₹29.50 ₹29.50₹29.50
