Artist look at Krishna and now could notice few differences. So he went away and painted new picture. He come again. This time Krishna again told him the same. This repeated few times and picture was never complete.The artist was becoming desperate.
Finally Narada Muni become very compassionate to the artist. He took him away and told him:
If you want to make perfect picture of Krishna you cannot paint like this. He is at every moment new and new, more beautiful and more beautiful. You just go at market and buy some mirror.
Present that to Krishna. The artist followed instruction of Narada Muni. And he come with present for Krishna. Krishna oppenend the present and look at mirror. Krishna was very long time looking at the mirror. He was very pleased by what was seeing. Finally He said to artist: Thank you! This is perfect picture!

Glory to the Sri Krishna Sankirtana, which cleanses the heart of all the dust accumulated for years and extinguishes the fire of conditional life, of repeated birth and death.
This sankirtana movement is the prime benediction for humanity at large because it spreads the rays of the benediction moon.
It is the life of all transcendental knowledge. It increases the ocean of transcendental bliss, and it enables us to fully taste the nectar for which we are always anxious. ..........
