We welcome our good friend Kale Lepak to tell Krishna baby stories.
Krishna baby deals with demon, after demon, after demon,- with each one being vastly different from the others.
We tell the story of 2 of Vishu's different avatars/forms in Hindu Mythology-
Kurma the turtle and Matsya the Fish- and we can't help but notice the parallels to Jesus Christ and expert ark maker, Noah.
S.P. Jayaraj is the creator of the mythic world of Adijari that is the setting of his two novels, The Secret of the Zipacna Dragons and Legacy of the Crow. He is also a Creative Life Coach through his business Imagination Life Coaching. The Mahabharata and other global mythology inspires him in all his projects.

NYMM 16: The Dark One's Lineage: Krishna Chronicles 1
Satish decides that before continuing forward, we should venture back to explore the origin of the enigmatic lord Krishna. Drew Kellum Johnson joins us to discover the origin of the Yadavas. Starting off with two besties who have a falling out after wearing each other's clothes, followed by a king cursed with old age unless he can convince one of his sons to take the curse from him, and finally the prophesy of a heroic birth sends a damaged king on a tailspin of murder and madness.
