We've heard that the sky is blue because it's a reflection of Lord
Krsna's body. Modern science probably wouldn't agree. Here are some
things Srila Prabhupada said about this (excerpted from a lecture in
Srimad Bhagavatam 7.9.9 in Montreal on 4 July 1968: "Yes. Krsna is
bluish. Krsna's color is the sky. When you see the clear sky, bluish
sky, are you not very happy? ,Krsna's body, there is a ray,
brahmajyoti. That brahmajyoti is reflected in the sky. That brahmajyoti
is outside this material sky, but that is being reflected. Therefore
the sky's color, it appears bluish."
