   I thought I read once that Krishna is said to have had the ability to change   
   shape and size, from the very small to the very large, but I couldn’t find   
   anything on this in some quick google searches. Follow up if you know or an   
   online or book reference on this, even a pointer to a particular verse of the   
   Bhagavad Gita.   
      
   My interpretation of this ability is that it is the same as my ability of   
   soul alignment, such that I am able to align my soul with any other someone,   
   and then temporarily we share the same soul. Thus I refer to myself as an   
   avatar type-2, whereas an avatar type-1 is permanently aligned with a higher   
   someone and remains part of that higher someone after death.   
      
   But note that I am also able to facilitate the temporary soul alignment of   
   two other someones, which might be useful when someone has to represent a   
   deity in a ritual. And for example I have facilitated the alignment of our   
   black and white cat Sam a while ago with Orca, the species someone of the   
   orca species, and that has not clicked out yet.
