Krishna Comes - An Introduction
This talks about the enemies that Krishna had before even being born. Talk about being set up for failure! It would be fun to write about someone coming to a new place with people disliking them before they even got a chance to introduce themselves
Krishna Episode 1 - Kamsa
Kamsa (an evil ruler) learns that his sister's 8th child will be the cause of his death
He thinks about ending their lives, but throws them in jail instead
Instead, he kills all of their children - awful
She becomes pregnant with 8th child (why)
No one could harm this baby! Still, they were scared (as they should be)
So dramatic! I can't think of anything specific right now, but I would love to make a story out of this scene
Krishna Episode 2 - Vasudev Meets Yamuna
The parents are so proud but so afraid. I can't even imagine this feeling.
Vasudev is able to escape...seems to be some divine intervention
He carries the child through the dark rain (again, so dramatic!)
V asks the river for help...interesting
A serpent comes to help. I thought this was interesting since serpents are typically evil symbols
V switches the babies...scandalous. It is so sad that he had to abandon his son, but why did an innocent baby have to be put in danger!? Not fair.
Krishna Episode 3 - Durga Speaks to Kamsa
Kamsa hears of the birth of the child and fears. This is another emotion that I can't even fathom.
He sees that the baby is a girl (it wasn't, but they were switched) and laughs...annoying
I'm still angry that V put this girl in danger. Nothing happens to her, but it easily could have!!
The girl makes a fool of Kamsa and this makes me happy. I would love to make a story like this too...of a fierce girl competitor who is not taken seriously
Krishna Episode 4 - Putana
Okay so the mother of the girl is now VERY confused that she has a baby boy. Again, can't imagine this feeling.
She loves the child as her own anyways.
Everyone loves little baby Krishna.
Putana shows up and makes her way into the family and then becomes a demon and steals Krishna...wow
The demon cannot kill the baby...mama finds baby K next to the corpse of the demon
Krishna Episode 5 - Maakhan Chor
Krishna becomes a very ornery child
Y always defends her little boy then interrogates him when people leave...hehe
Krishna Episode 6- Krishna's mouth
Someone tells Y that Krishna is eating mud but when she demands that he opens his mouth, she finds...........the universe. WHAT?
This was different and surprising but this is the turning point when she realizes that Krishna is not an ordinary little boy.
Krishna Episode 7 - Dreams and Music
The boys love exploring the forest
Krishna starts to become interested in music and soon conquers it (still a child!)
K finds his friends all dead and challenges the snake. He plays scary music and dances viciously on the snake's head.
Krishna Episode 8 - Kamsa's Terrors
Krishna is now a young man. He is still a trouble maker!
He has become a fierce warrior and has fought off many demons
Krishna Episode 9 - The Govardhan Hill
Indra creates a terrifying storm and everyone comes to Krishna
He lifts the Govardhan Hill and uses it as a giant umbrella for everyone
Indra begs for Krishna to forgive him!
Krishna Episode 10 - Radha's love
Women love to dance to the music Krishna makes, but Krishna has his eyes on a girl that he grew up with. So cute.
Radha drinks hot milk and Krishna's tongue blisters
Radha loves Krishna more than anything. Their love is quite sweet.
(I've noticed the reoccurring theme of serpents in this series!)
