In Hindu belief, Krishna is one of the most loved forms of the god — an avatar, a god come to earth as a person. Stories show him as a beautiful young man, often with dark blue or black skin; sometimes as a child who steals butter, sometimes as a cowherd with a flute, and later as the wise friend who speaks in the Bhagavad Gita before a great battle. Temples and paintings in India and around the world are full of him. You may also hear Hare Krishna from a group that chants his name. We write Krishna with a capital K because it is a holy name.
克里希納（宗教場合亦作奎師那；梵語本義為「黑」，故有人稱黑天。毗濕奴最重要的化身之一）
組成Borrowed from Sanskrit kṛṣṇa, a name that means dark or black. That is why some Chinese writing calls him 黑天.
