144. Does Krishna curse those who don’t follow him?

A man made God may curse those who don’t follow him to a life in hell and he may be jealous, because he is not in control. But Krishna is not like this. Krishna is nice and he is in full control. He doesn’t force anyone to follow him nor does he send anyone to hell just because they don’t follow him.
“I have explained to you the most confidential knowledge. Now, think about it and then do as you wish.” (Lord Krishna, Bhagavad-Gita 18.63)

After speaking the Bhagavad-Gita to Arjuna, Krishna gives him free will. He doesn’t say Arjuna will go to hell if he doesn’t follow him nor does Krishna say he will be jealous if Arjuna doesn’t follow him. This is because Krishna is a mature and responsible person. Krishna is all loving and all merciful, the real God.
