##
Shri Krishna's charitam in short is that he is Devaki's son,
Gopi's admiration, Putana's killer, holder of Govardhan Giri,
slayer of Kansa, destroyer of Kauravas, protector of Kunti's sons
and the central figure of Srimad Bhagavata PurAnam.

(Alternate)

Starting with birth from the womb of Devaki, growth in the
house of cow-herds, killing of Putana, lifting of
Govardhana mountain, the cutting of Kamsa and the killing
of kauravas, protecting the sons of KuntI - This is
BhAgavataM as told in the epics. This is the nectar of Shri
Krishna's LIlA (sport).

This is an aphorism on Srimad BhAgavataM.
