Govind Bolo Hari Gopal Bolo | Krishna Janmashtami 2016 | Sri Krishna Bhajans
Govinda and Gopal (also known as Govind, Gobind and Gopal) are the names of Vishnu which mean "The finder of Veda" & "Protector of Veda" as 'Go' means Veda, Cow and also senses. So Govinda, Gopala means Cowherd or Protection of Cows, or one who gives pleasure to senses. These names are also popularly addressed to Krishna, discussing his younger activity as a cowherd boy. This name shows up as the 187th and the 539th name of Lord Vishnu in Vishnu Sahasranama. Lord Vishnu or his complete incarnation Krishna are thought to be the Substantial God in the Vaishnava tradition and also by much of the pan-Hindu tradition.
Gopala Krishna of Krishnaism is often in contrast with Vedism when Krishna asks his followers to desist from Vedic demigod worship such as Indra worship. Thus the smoothness of Gopala Krishna is often considered to be non-Vedic in an one interpretation, while it can even be based upon the popular understanding or rather misunderstanding of the Rig Vedic text messages.
According to Klaus Klostermaier, Kumar Gopijanavallabha, Krishna the lover of the Gopis, is the latest level in the historical process resulting in modern day Krishnaism, being added to the worship of Bala Krishna (the Divine Child Krishna), and the original conspiracy of Krishna-Vasudeva which may date back to several centuries before the General Era
