For a full year, the parents and cows of Vrindavana loved these forms even more deeply, not realizing they were all Krishna Himself.

Karma-Yoga: Giving gifts to Krishna is an act of Karma-Yoga, selfless action performed without attachment to the results, which helps in the purification of karma and liberation from the cycle of birth and death.
