Here is something in development. It is a full-fledged novel.
By Mayank Chhaya
Location:
Vaikunth.
Krishna is sitting in a meditative, cross-legged position on his lapis lazuli throne, pondering something profound. Radha, humming, catches Krishna in that mood and asks:
Radha:
You seem lost in something very deep.
Krishna does not respond but merely smiles at her.
Radha:
Do tell.
Krishna does not respond but continues to smile. Radha is rather intrigued. He then gets up from his throne and starts pacing. Radha looks at him quizzically as if saying silently, “Do tell” again and again.
Krishna stops, looks at her and then looks beyond her. He says grandiloquently and expansively:
Radha’s face is study in consternation and incomprehension. She says:
Radha:
I have not heard that from you for thousands of years. What makes you invoke it all of a sudden?
Krishna starts pacing again. He subconsciously picks up a flute but does not play it. He stops near Radha, holds her right hand and says:
Krishna:
I feel called upon from Earth today in quite the same manner that Arjuna had called, trapped as he was in a great moral dilemma. It is as if Arjuna has appeared all over again. That is strange because if he had I would have known.
