This is all in the Bhagavat Puran which is like the 'Old Testament' for Hindus, but about twenty times longer than that. *sigh*

I remember being a member of ISKCON (Hare Krishnas) for a few years in my teens and every evening for a few hours...we'd study the Bhagavat Puran.

So, after Lord Brahma's many failed attempts at creating the human species who didn't want to have free-will and rejected it, Lord Vishnu added His 'preservation touch' and thus Manu (from whence comes the term 'Man') was born...initially, Lord Vishnu taught the holy ways (Dharma) to Manu...then, Manu taught it to his son, Ishvaku...and I forget who was next in line after that...

I was just like *yawn* "when do we get to the worshiping Krishna part?" LOL

*but I was listening...
