Nobody is a complete failure.
But an Avatar like Krishna he was not. 

He did not start anything new. He only recommended people to become Prathyeka Buddhists meditating in solitude or similar without telling them the difference between good and bad magic.

There is another angle to K.

If any of his writings or speeches have helped anyone, then for that
*person*, it is immaterial whether he failed or not. This is because in the
final analysis, it is one's life that is important.

Considering the bookshelves of major book sellers are well stocked with his
works seems to indicate many are reading them. When I went to my local major
bookstore chain, I saw more K's books than all the theosophical
books combined. Shelfspace allocation is based on how fast the publications
move, it seems to indicate lot of the books are getting sold to the public.
