Have you ever heard the expression, “Love can move a mountain?” If so, it’s a direct reference to a story involving the Hindu god of love, Krishna, who held a mountain aloft with a single finger to protect a group of villagers. He did this to illustrate worship or devotion should be performed out of love, not fear. He proved, in the world of mythology love conquers all!
