According to Hindu legend, 5,000 years ago, a Vedic sage named Vyasa composed the Bhagavata, a chronicle of the acts of Krishna\u2019s avatar on earth. Combining deep philosophy with Hollywood-type action, the Bhagavata epic became the leitmotif of Eastern spirituality, art, drama, sculpture and poetry, as well as architectural masterpieces like Angkor Vatu.<\/p>\n
It turns out that the sensational plot of Avatar, which now has columnists and bloggers of every kind wearing out their keyboards, was committed to palm leaves thousands of years ago in elegant Sanskrit lettering. There, the blue-skinned avatar of Krishna flies the giant Garuda to the noble tribe of Vrajah, which lives in the forest of Vrindavan amid precious ore of \u201ccintamani\u201d stone. There, the sacred Govardhan Hill hovers above the ground where the Trees of Wishes grows, under which Krishna\u2019s new tribe hides from an \u201cair attack\u201d by his sky brethren. That is where beautiful native girl Radha lives \u2013 whose love of Krishna fills the ancient legend with life and meaning. <\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
