📖 Acerca de Kishan
Kishan es un nombre de origen sanscrito profundamente vinculado a la figura divina de Krishna, una de las deidades mas veneradas del hinduismo. Deriva del termino sanscrito krsna, que significa 'oscuro' o 'todo-atractivo', en referencia a la legendaria tez oscura de Krishna y a su naturaleza magnetica y omnipresente. Como variante afectuosa de Krishna, Kishan comparte el mismo peso espiritual: el tocador de flauta celestial, el protector que transmite la sabiduria del Bhagavad Gita a Arjuna en el campo de batalla de Kurukshetra y el divino vaquero de Vrindavan. El nombre se usa ampliamente en la India, especialmente en las regiones de habla hindi, y ha viajado con la diaspora india hasta el Reino Unido, Mauricio, Fiyi, Trinidad y Sudafrica. Elegir Kishan en lugar de la forma completa Krishna suele ser una forma de conservar la resonancia sagrada del nombre dandole a la vez una calidez mas cotidiana e intima.
