Reading Notes: Krishna Epified Videos
I decided that since my massive project is about the son of Krishna I would do some of my reading this week over Krishna. Well, assignment since I watched videos. Just watching this first portion was enjoyable. I can see how I can spin some of Krishna's characteristics into his son's character and I think that will be a lot of fun.
But:
Krishna's mom has a brother who is essentially evil. He is told that the eighth child of his sister will be the end to him. He freaks out and wants to kill the couple but instead locks them up in prison and smashes every baby they have.
The seventh baby is transferred from her womb to elsewhere, assuming this will be important later?
Then: the eighth baby is conceived, born, and somehow everyone is asleep as the father takes the infant out of the prison.
Krishna is raised by another woman. He sucks the life out of Putana as she attempts to feed him her poisonous milk.
As a child, he's a bit rambunctious. Stealing lots of butter from farmers and women in the village he's raised in. His brother who is raised with him follows him around and watches him stir up trouble.
He gets older and strangles a tornado. He also lifts up a mountain with his one finger to protect the village people from a storm created by an angry god.
And then the series ends as an introduction to his love for Radha.

Hi Aleshia,
ReplyDeleteIt’s nice to see that someone else watched and enjoyed the Epified TV videos too!
I like your reading notes: they’re short, to the point, clear, and still have plenty of room for character and flavor you can use later (see “rambunctious,” always a good time when that word makes an appearance).
If you liked these, you’ll definitely liked Epified’s Mahabharata videos!
Best,
A.M.
