Yashoda is a character in Hindu mythology, known as the foster-mother of Lord Krishna. In the mythlore, she is depicted as a simple cowherd woman, with no divine or supernatural powers of her own.
In a surreal tale, baby Krishna shows his mouth to his mother, Yashoda, revealing the entire universe within himself. This includes the sun, moon, stars, planets, oceans, mountains, continents, and all beings. The story transforms Yashoda's understanding of her son, who is nothing but the divine itself.
