Krṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead
Krṣṇa described in the  Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam  are relished by pure devotees through submissive aural reception. They do not reject even a drop.
The story of Krṣṇa's marriage with Rukmiṇī is described as follows. The King of Vidarbha, Mahārāja Bhīṣmaka, was a very qualified and devoted prince. He had five sons and only one daughter. The first son was known as Rukmī; the second, Rukmaratha; the third, Rukmabāhu; the fourth and youngest, Rukmakeśa; and the fifth, Rukmamālī. The brothers had one young sister, Rukmiṇī. She was beautiful and chaste and was meant to be married to Lord Krṣṇa. Many saintly persons and sages like Nārada Muni and others used to visit the palace of King Bhīṣmaka. Naturally Rukmiṇī had a chance to talk with them, and in this way she obtained information about Krṣṇa. She was informed about the six opulences of Krṣṇa, and simply by hearing about Him, she desired to surrender herself to His lotus feet and become His wife. Krṣṇa had also heard of Rukmiṇī. She was the reservoir of all transcendental qualities: intelligence, liberal-mindedness, exquisite beauty and righteous behavior. Krṣṇa therefore decided that she was fit to be His wife. All of the family members and relatives of King Bhīṣmaka decided that Rukmiṇī should be given in marriage to Krṣṇa. However her elder brother, Rukmī, despite the desire of the others, arranged for her marriage with Śiśupāla, a determined enemy of Krṣṇa. When the black-eyed, beautiful Rukmiṇī heard the settlement, she immediately became very morose. However, being a king's daughter, she understood political diplomacy and decided that there was no use in simply becoming morose. Some steps should be taken immediately. After some deliberation, she decided to send a message to Krṣṇa, and so that she might not be deceived, she selected a qualified  brāhmaṇa  as her messenger. Such a qualified  brāhmaṇa  is always truthful and is a devotee of Viṣṇu. Without delay, the  brāhmaṇa  was sent to Dvārakā.
Reaching the gate of Dvārakā, the  brāhmaṇa  informed the doorkeeper of his arrival, and the doorkeeper led him to the place where Krṣṇa was sitting on a golden throne. Since the  brāhmaṇa  had the opportunity of being Rukmiṇī's messenger, he was fortunate enough to see the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krṣṇa, who is the original cause of all causes. A  brāhmaṇa  is the spiritual teacher of all the social divisions. Lord Śrī Krṣṇa, in order to teach everyone the Vedic etiquette of how to respect a  brāhmaṇa , immediately got up and offered him His throne. When the  brāhmaṇa  was seated on the golden throne, Lord Śrī Krṣṇa began to worship him exactly in the manner in which the demigods worship Krṣṇa. In this way, He taught everyone that worshiping His devotee is more valuable than worshiping Himself.
