<strong>H<strong>in</strong>duism</strong>: <strong>What</strong> <strong>Really</strong> Happened <strong>in</strong> <strong>India</strong> – M. M. N<strong>in</strong>an<br />
Krishna. Balarama gave up his ghost <strong>in</strong> disgust and Krishna withdrew to<br />
a copse near the shore and waited for the drama to play itself out.<br />
His constant headgear of peacock feather plumes stuck out over the edge<br />
of the conceal<strong>in</strong>g shrub he was sitt<strong>in</strong>g beh<strong>in</strong>d, and a hunter let fly a fatal<br />
arrow mistak<strong>in</strong>g it for a prize catch of a peacock. The arrow stuck him <strong>in</strong><br />
the heel, like Achilles his only vulnerable spot, and the end had come.<br />

only difference is that Krishna knew his past births and poor us do not!<br />
Life, Objective realities, evidence or truthfulness is not the important<br />
factor to <strong>H<strong>in</strong>duism</strong>. Only the preach<strong>in</strong>g is the essence! If one can build<br />
fantasy - that is enough?<br />
Redemption through faith<br />
sarva-dharman parityajya mam ekam saranam vraja<br />
aham tvam sarva-papebhyo moksayisyami ma sucah<br />
"Abandon all varieties of dharma and just surrender unto Me. I shall<br />
