Krishna.

As the Indian god of light Krishna has also been said to be born at the Winter Solstice.

This is when the Sun is at its most distant in the Northern Hemisphere and (after three days stationary) begins to return towards the North.

This date is known as the Birth of the Sun.

And it is celebrated as the birthday of Jesus Christ because this is when the light was born into the world.

So all cultures share in the Light.

And celebrate its birth.
