Reading Notes: Krishna Epified, Part B
Now I'll be taking notes as I watch through the second half of these episodes. In episode 11, Brahma decided to test Krishna's divinity by taking his friends and their cows. Krishna, discovering all this missing, decided to use his divinity to understand that it was Brahma behind this. So he decided to play a funny trick on Brahma to humble him. He created the cows and his friends out of himself, and no one was any the wiser. For a whole year this went on, and Brahma, discovering the trick, bowed before Krishna's power. He learned a valuable lesson that day.
In the next episode, which I enjoyed, Krishna declares that he will ride Hastin by the next full moon. No one believed him. But day after day Krishna would come to the cowshed where Hastin was and would play his flute for hours, and feed sweet food to him. He was slowly winning Hastin over, and was able to move closer and closer to Hastin Eventually, during the next full moon, Krishna lept onto Hastin and rode him through the village until the bull was exhausted. Everyone learned a valuable lesson on kindness that day.
In a really interesting episode, Krishna arrives in kingdom of his uncle. He knows that his uncle will try to kill him, but he goes anyway. When he arrives, he wanders the streets and interacts with the people. There he meets a kindly old women who has 3 deformities. She was told long ago that the son of Vasudev would heal her deformities. So as she looked upon Krishna, she went up to him and asked to be healed. He saw her pain and suffering, and as he embraced her she was healed.
Kans devised one last plan to kill Krishna before Krishna killed him. He took an aggressive and uncontrollable elephant and asked this elephant to be tied to the entrance of the arena. Krishna saw the elephant blocking the way, and grabbed his trunk and flung him away. When the elephant returned to trample him, Krishna struck a heavy blow to the elephant and the elephant was unconscious.
After defeating the elephant, Krishna walked towards the divine bow, and Kans ordered two wrestlers to defeat him and Balram. Krishna and Balram defeated the wrestlers, and walked towards teh bow. Krishna was able to lift the bow with ease and when he tried to string it, the bow snapped. Kans ordered his men to kill Krishna, then tried to flee as Krishna and Balram defeated his men. There was a great fight, but eventually Kans died. Everyone cheered because they were free now.
