While Allah and Krishna are the same, Shiva and Krishna are apparantly not.

Krishna or Shiva?
For many years I have thought myself a devotee of Lord Shiva. Recently my daughter was diagnosed with cancer and i find myself worshiping Lord Krishna and have had many incredible Krishna and Jagannath experiences.
Accordning to Iskcon, even Vishnu is only an Incarnation of Krishna and not the other way around. <!--emo&:unsure:--><img src='style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='unsure.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Krishna is an Incarnation of Maha-Visnu? There is No Krsnaloka??
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->As for your specific question in regard to Krishna and Visnu. Visnu is an incarnation of Krishna, Krishna is the original Supreme Personality of Godhead, syam bhagavan. It is true that all the Visnu-tattva incarnations including Maha-Visnu are non-different from Krishna, but still Krishna is the origin of them all. This point is confirmed in so many places in the Bhagavad-gita and in so many other Vedic texts also. Where are your quotes from the Bhagavad-gita to say Maha-Visnu is the origin of Krishna? There is no such quote at all. So where have you got the idea from? It is not in the Bhagavad-gita at all.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
It would be nice to hear someone clarify how these indescrepancies crept in.
