why is lord vishnu/krishna/Ram in blue colour?

Answer 1

Wherever there is the union of purity and depth it produces blue colour. The water of the seas and the sky both are blue. Hence the colour blue is also called aasmani or sky colour. Lord Vishnu, Lord Krishna, Lord Ram are all blue coloured. Meghavarnam Shubhaangam or Kekee Kanthaabhneelam. Since God combines both purity and depth or boundlessness hence God too is blue.

Answer 2

The color of Vishnu's skin has to be new-cloud-like-blue: The blue color indicates his all-pervasive nature, blue being the color of the infinite sky as well as the infinite ocean on which he resides. The color blue symbolizes the infinite. Vishnu is represented as an infinite force. It also symbolizing his vastness as deep as the heavens.

Symbolism and meaning of Blue color is a very wide category of which numerous interpretations exist. The most relevant comments in my opinion are that blue stands for the vertical and the spatial, in other words height and depth, or the blue sky above, the blue sea below. It symbolizes that Masonry is as wide as these dimensions. It is also interesting to note that blue is considered to be "between black and white", also commonly identified with two opposing forces, good (white) and evil (black). Thus blue is considered the most neutral of all the colors.

For this reason only the incarnations of Lord Vishnu, Krishna, Rama etc., are shown in blue colour skin.-

Black often has a bluish tint to it when seen in the light. So, actually Krishna is Blueish-Black as he is referred to his blackness. That is not to be confused with the recent African descended people called black people. Black light is the perfect expulsion of light and attraction of light. Thus is Krishna the supreme all attractive and can defeat anyone upon his will. aham sarvasya prabhavo mattah sarvam pravartate iti matva bhajante mam budha bhava-samanvitah -- I am the source of all spiritual and material worlds. Everything eminates from me. The wise who know perfectly know this engage in my devotional service and worship me with all their hearts. As the sun gives light to the world so is Krishna the emittance of everything

nanto asti mama divyanam vibhutinam parantapa esah tu uddeshetah proktah vibhuteh vistarah maya --There is no end to my divine manifestations Oh mighty conquerer What I have spoken to you is but a mere indication of my infinite opulences. Sri-bhabavan uvaca pasya me partha rupani shatasho atha sahasrashah nana-vidhani divyani nana-varnakrtini ca. The supreme God said: My dear Arjuna,son of Prtha, see now my opulences, my hundreds of thousands of varied divine and multicolored forms. So Krishna can take any color form he wants. What in this world is more dynamic and beautiful than a Bluish-black body? Only Krishna in his true form can show you that!
