Q65. How many wives did Krishna have?

16,108. Many people say, “Krishna was immoral as he had 16,108 wives”. This is a foolish and dumb statement. If one accepts that Krishna had 16,108 wives, then he accepts that Krishna is the one and only God. The fact that He had 16,108 wives is simple proof that He is God. If one were to get married to one wife a day, it would take 16,108 days to marry the 16,108 girls. This is 44 years. Who can take 44 years off from their work/business to get married? The fact that Krishna could marry the 16,108 girls is simple proof that He is God. These foolish people only mention part of the story and not the full story. The full story is that Lord Krishna had 16,108 wives, but there were 16,108 Krishna’s and not just one. There was one wife for each of the 16,108 Krishna’s. Is there anything wrong with one male body having one wife? As Lord Krishna was God, He can do things that we cannot even imagine and especially the foolish persons who deride Lord Krishna. Lord Krishna expanded His one body into 16,108 identical bodies and then each Krishna married each one of the 16,108 girls. He married 16,100 girls all at the same time and date, but each in different locations, and the other 8 on different dates. This is another proof that He is God. Do you know anyone who can be present in multiple locations at the same time? The 16,108 couples (one Krishna and one wife make one couple) lived in their own palace, thus there were 16,108 palaces. This is another proof that Lord Krishna is God, because He is the richest person. Do you know anyone who can maintain 16,108 homes? If you find that person, He is God.
