from The Long Thread - Ancient Stories For The Present Moment. · host Ashvee Kanwar

Narada had been asking Krishna one question for as long as either of them could remember."What is maya?"He had read everything written about it. Understood it perfectly as a concept. And never once experienced it.One afternoon Krishna finally agreed to explain."Lie down in the shade of this tree and I will tell you everything.But first — it is terribly hot. Would you get me some water from that village over there?"Narada set off happily across the fields.He reached the village.He found a well.And at the well there was a young woman.And Narada — the immortal sage who had spent eternity chanting the name of God — completely forgot about Krishna.What happened next took years. Half an hour passed.New story every day.Follow so you never miss one.
