They are aware of
past-present-future but deport themselves as ordinary human beings. They reveal
their reality, only to few chosen ones. They never play foul or err in their
chosen missions. Their love-grace-blessing is for everyone. They never create
any religion, faith as they represent the truth – Love combination, whose Source
is One. And they reveal this Reality only. Their revelations are still valid.
After 5200 years, Truth revealed to Arjuna in the form of Gita, is still as
valid as it was then. Thousands years hence, its validity would remain as fresh
and valid as it is today. Truth-Reality never changes with the changing
dimensions. Sacred scriptures---sacred, because each scripture is proclaimed to
be the word of Gods---of other religions have lost their significance in the
scientific era of today! Not that they did not contain reality. But they
revealed limited realities not the whole-Reality. Since its (Gita) enlightening
discourse there have been many skeptics, but never, ever, there has been one,
who followed its philosophy and failed to experience the Bliss of the Existence
of God.
But we should not attach too much importance to Krishna factor. He too was only a medium for the revelation of Truth. He was a prince and like princes, he employed questionable means – tit for tat – dubious dealings etc. May be for nobler ends but means should never be negative or against the ethics one preaches. Thought-word-deed should be one.
Truth told in Gita is Eternal, Krishna’s Source too was eternal, but He is not accepted by many a reincarnation of God, because according to them His actions, behavior or tantrum, did not correspond to the whole Truth-Love. (A contestable statement though!)

Many saints through
self-restraint, sacrifices, yogic sadhna,
(spiritual-exercise) compassion and love, realized some levels of Truth. But
mistakenly they thought their realization as whole and considered themselves as
the ‘knower’ of Truth, thus true representatives of God. As their realizations
were only partial and their explanations or revelations were also incomplete.
So their realities differed with each other. They made the source of their
realities as local-personal-separate. Each of their reality personified and
represented one different God. Their glossary of Gods equaled the number of
faiths and religions in existence. As each ruler erected his empire and created
its boundaries, the same-way founders of religions segmented the society in as
many groups as there were religions. Where the state-religion, power combined,
societies-Nations-civilizations became their targets in the name of holy wars –
crusades, Jihad. The wars fought by the rulers for the expansion of their
worldly realms and the resultant destruction wrought thereof, was negligible as
compared to the quantum of ruins left by the zealots of the religions.
