Week 12 Reading Diary A - Sister Nivedita

A bronze figure of Krishna as a child.
Previously, I read Sister Nivedita's versions of tales of Shiva. This time, I decided to focus on the tales of Krisha. I thought it was interesting how Krisha was worshiped from an infant, and how he even grew from an infant state, since it appears that many figures in Indian epics/mythology are born in a fully adult form.

This reading comes from Sister Nivedita's Cradle tales of Hinduism, which can be found online here.
