    Also this :

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bala_Krishna

    Special for Krsna Baghavan, because in His story, so many story about the chilhood of Krsna Baghavan, so many lila, so need to worship His child form, for remembering His Grace.

    Namaste Shian,

    About Shri KRshNa in particular, of course His baal lilas (pastimes) are too mesmerizing.

    Another reason for choosing baal form of God is - the devotion is automatically selfless, pure, anyAbhilasha - shUnya (devoid of any desires for the individual's benefit). So, while the devotee is still in material mind frame, and still attached to the mundane, they will have a tendency to ask for something, or worship with some expectations in mind, or to gratify themselves.

    With the child form this is practically impossible. What can you expect from a child ? The child is helpless and under your care, to be bathed, fed, dressed and nurtured. It molds the devotee into a shuddha bhakta (pure devotee) devoid of any desires for themselves.

    This is why VallabhAcharya, the founder of the VaishNav path called Pushti Maarg, established devotion to Baal KRshNa (crawling infant) or Shri NAthJi (Govardhan-lifting-seven yr old KRshNa) as the standard.
    That does not mean Pushti Marg devotees do not perform seva for other forms of KRshNa - like Dwarkadheesh (Lord of Dwarka), BAnke Bihari (flute playing), etc. but it is KRshNa only - not other avtars.

    Re: Bala (child)

    wow, thank you Smaranam Ji

    i also just read about Bala Tripurasundari, that devotion to Bala Tripurasundari is without any worldy desire.

    I have Krsna rupang (colour), He is Bala Krsna, who crawl then have a big pot of honey, His hand and mouth full of honey.
    Are this rupang is also allowed in puja ?
    What is the divine meaning of this kind of rupang ?

    Thank you

    Namaste Shian,

    It is not honey, it is a pot of butter. Maakhan Leelaa.

    "What is the Divine Meaning of this rupAnga ?"

    Divine Meaning ?? Please read "Krishna, The Supreme Personality of Godhead" OR BhAgvat. I am going to post some amazing animation film about BhagvAn's leela.
