Guest guest Report post Posted September 22, 2003 Did people worship Him in deity form before 5,000 years ago? His original form, not his incarnations like Varaha, Narasimha, etc. If you were to live before He appeared on earth, what deities would you see in the temple?

Jahnava Nitai Das 2 Report post Posted October 1, 2003 The Lord's incarnations are cyclical, so Lord Krishna has appeared thousands of times in past Dvapara yugas. In addition to this, the Lord's form is eternally existing beyond time, in Vaikuntha. Personalities such as Lord Brahma have meditated and seen this form of the Lord from the beginning of creation.
