Krishna (Sanskrit: कृष्ण, kṛṣṇa = „der Schwarze“ oder „der Dunkle“; in Südindien häufig als keshava oder venugopala = „Kuhhirte mit Flöte“ bezeichnet) ist eine hinduistische Form des Göttlichen und wird meist als der achte Avatara von Vishnu verehrt. Für seine Anhänger ist Krishna die Inkarnation des Höchsten. Die heiligen Schriften beschreiben Krishnas Körpertönung als vergleichbar mit einer frischen Gewitterwolke. Er hat stets eine Bambusflöte bansuri bei sich und trägt eine Pfauenfeder im Haar. Sein himmlischer Wohnort ist goloka. Obwohl er im wissenschaftlichen Sinne nicht als historisch angesehen wird, gehen die meisten Hindus davon aus, dass er tatsächlich gelebt hat.
