Does Lord Krishna wear a toe ring?
In traditional depictions and iconography, Lord Krishna is often shown wearing various ornaments, including jewelry that adorns his feet, but specific representations of toe rings can vary.

Artistic interpretations can differ, so while some depictions may show him with toe rings, it is not a universally recognized attribute.
What does Krishna say is the cause of evildoing?
In the Bhagavad Gita, Krishna explains that the cause of evildoing is primarily due to ignorance and the influence of the three gunas (qualities) of nature: sattva (goodness), rajas (passion), and tamas (ignorance). When individuals are dominated by these qualities, particularly tamas, they lose sight of their true self and act against dharma (righteousness). Additionally, Krishna emphasizes that desires and attachments lead to actions that can result in evildoing, as they cloud judgment and lead individuals away from their true purpose.
Krishna is a major deity in Hinduism, revered as an incarnation of Vishnu and known for his role in the Bhagavad Gita, where he imparts spiritual wisdom to Arjuna. Jah, often associated with the Rastafarian movement, is a term used to refer to God and is derived from the Hebrew name for God, Yahweh. Both figures symbolize divine guidance and moral teachings within their respective traditions.

Srikrishnadevaraya, who ruled the Vijayanagara Empire for more than two decades from the great city of Hampi died under mysterious circumstances. Some historians believe that he died of diabetes and bedsores. According to Portuguese traveler Domingo Peas, who wrote a detailed chronicle, Krishnadevaraya used to dink a glass of sesame oil every morning and exercise a lot. Some ayurveda physicians might have misguided Krishnadevaraya by giving wrong health tips. This practice, drinking oil everyday, might have caused diabetes. This disease usually leads to irreparable wounds, bed sores, that kill after they were infected.
Another view was Krihsnadevarya had contacted the syphilis disease, that spread from portuguese to Indians in the first part of the 16th century. But this view is not supported by any tangible material.

Oh honey, let me set the record straight for you. Krishna, a major deity in Hinduism, is definitely not Satan. They're like apples and oranges - completely different entities from different belief systems. So, no need to lose sleep over that comparison, darlin'.

What religion reveres the god Krishna?
Lord Krishna advocates that everyone, all of His parts and parcels worship Him alone so they may be able to return home, back to Godhead, for eternal life of blissful knowledge. No other type of worship will give this result.
Reference:Bhagavad-gita 9.25 http://vedabase.net/bg/9/en
"Those who worship the demigods will take birth among the demigods; those who worship the ancestors go to the ancestors; those who worship ghosts and spirits will take birth among such beings; and those who worship Me will live with Me."Above answer is copy pasted answer of Dina Sharana Das.
You might presume that only Lord Krishna is to be worshiped. This is true. There is only one infinite God. Others are finite. So for the infinite results, you have to worship that infinite God only. There can not be two or more infinite Gods.
The further explanation fallows.
Lord Krishna says, "Whenever there is decline or destruction of Dharma and increase of growth of adharma (What is against dharma is adharma.), I take birth." (4/07. Bhagwadgeeta.)
That means Lord takes birth repeatedly. He has taken birth repeatedly.
It is the language and ego problem to say that God sends His son or sends a messenger. It is futile discussion. What is called as petrol in some part of the world is called as gas in USA.
So it is stupid to fight over the meaning of words. One should look into the advice of God. The advice is surprisingly same. So it is the most stupid thing to fight over His name and address.
The truth can not be two. It is one. When I read Bible, I repeatedly feel that I am reading Geeta, for example.
Why is Lord Krishna called Govinda?
All our kids like Hanuman and enjoy his stories. Here is one story involving Hanuman from Ramayana.
Lord Rama was making Sethu Bandana (Sethu Bridge) across Indian Ocean to reach Lanka and rescue Seethamma. Sugriva along with his army chief Hanuman, Jambavan, Nal, Neel and others helped Lord Rama in his endeavor. Sugriva commanded all his army soldiers and chief to collect stones, rocks and mountains from all directions in order to construct the bridge.
Nal and Neel have got a boon that whatever they throw on sea will float. So they both were throwing all the stones and rocks that others bring on the ocean. Hanuman went to the north near Indraprastham in search of big mountain and found Govardhana Giri (Mountain). Govardhana Giri is a great Baktha and looking into each opportunity to serve for Lord Rama. Govardhana was very happy on seeing Hanuman and when Hanuman pleaded to take him for constructing Sethu Bandana, Govaradhana was immensely felt blessed.But suddenly some soldiers of Sugriva came to Hanuman, informing that Sethu Bandana is completed and it is time for us to march towards Lanka and rescue Seethamma.
On hearing this Govardhana felt very bad and thought that he is not fortunate enough to serve for Lord Rama. However Hanuman, being a Bhaktha could understand the feelings of another Bhaktha and assured him of conveying his Bhakthi to Lord Rama. As soon as he reached Rameswaram and saw Lord Rama, Hanuman described about Govardhana's bhakthi towards Him and how he felt bad for not getting a chance to serve Him. Lord Rama became very happy on hearing this, and gave a boon to Govardhana, that He will grace Govardhana by Uddharanam (lifting) when He takes Krishna avatar.
During Dwapara Yuga, Lord Krishna assured the people from saving Indra's anger and continuous rain in Vrindavanam and thus lifted Govardhana Giri which is located near Vrindavanam. Govardhana Giri felt blessed by His grace and realized that true Bhakthi will always be acknowledged by Lord. Indeed Krishna is named after this incident as Giridhara Gopala, who is the devoted Lord of Meera Bai. All Meera Bai songs refer to Giridhara Gopala and she sings how beautiful Lord Krishna is as a Giridhara Gopala in the below song.
This incident shows how true Bhakthi is valued and how fortunate Govardhana Giri to find place in another true Bhaktha, Meera Bai

Why is the hare Krishna such a popular religion today?
In short, Krishna is popular because he was a human incarnation (or avatar) of God (Lord Vishnu) -- his message is most clearly outlined in the works, the Bhagavad Gita and the Uddhava Gita. The first work is the most well-known work of Hindu smriti scripture; the second is lesser-known outside India, but continues the teachings that were first elaborated on in the Bhagavad Gita. In the Bhagavad Gita, Lord Krishna reveals to Arjuna (his human companion) his Divine Form - the true image of God, described in great detail and compared to the image of thousands of suns rising at once. Krishna is Popular Because He Is GOD " The supreme personality of god head "
What is the role of Krishna in Hinduism?
That is a very good question. Hindusm is not a religion. That is a way of life of the people from Bharata. Every types of view is allowed as per Hindu religion. You say there is no God and only there is material world. That view was tolerated by others. So Hidusm teaches the tolerance basically. Only thing was that you needed to be honest about your opinion. Because of this flexibility the age old religion is still existing. Lord Krishna is the one GOD concept as per Geeta in Hindusm.
What are the comments in adhyaya seven or section seven and shloka 8 to 15 of Bhagwat Geeta?
Lord Krishna says, " Look Arjuna, I am the fluidity in liquids, light in sun and moon, omkara in all the Veda, sound (?) in the space and manliness in the men." (7/8)."I am pure scent in the earth, plasma (core) in the fire, life in all the living things and willingness to worship in those who worship." (7/9).
" Look Arjuna, I am the origin of every form, living and non-living. I am the intelligence of intelligent people and (roughly) the character of the people, who have great character." (7/10).
"Arjuna, I am the power of in the powerful people and sex and sexuality in every body as per the norms of the society." (7/11).
"And those emotions, that come from (roughly) good bad or mixture of both, come from me. But in fact I am not in them and they are not in me." (7/12).
( Here the Lords Krishna makes self contradictory statement. He make similar self contradictory statement in 4/13 also. Such type of statements indicate that there are some things, which are beyond your intellectual capacity. For example the meaning of infinity can not be processed by human brain. For all practical purpose very large numbers act as infinity and gives you practically correct answer in your experiments.)
"Due to this good bad and mixture of both(?), these people are affected. So they do not know Me, who is beyond these things. " (7/13).
(Here again Lord Krishna says that He is 'beyond' your understanding.)
"Because this creation of mine is very difficult to understand (or rather impossible) to understand. But the people, who worship Me, cross this boundary." (7/14).
( I have been thinking about this infinity since my childhood. Now after thinking about the same for more than four decades, I came to the conclusion that human brain can not understand the meaning of infinity. Then the question that arise is that how some one had this concept of infinity some 3500 years back. I do not call myself as infinite God, but He says that He is that infinite God, that to repeatedly. I am trained by the modern science. He was not so. So I have no option, but to have faith in that infinite God.)
"The people, whose intellect is dominated by ego are stupid. Those people, who do bad karma, the people, who are mean minded are stupid and so do not worship Me." (15).
(The people, who go after the earthly things are stupid. For that such things do not give you lasting happiness. Deep inside you know that you are a thief. You are robbing others. So you do not get the real peace of mind. Real peace of mind can be obtained by sacrifice and love for others only.)
