We welcome John Rynders to tell him the story of what happens when Yudishthira closes the ceremony by honoring Krishna. Shishupala who has been carrying a grudge against Krishna chooses now to let it all out!
Satish recounts for John and Azure how that goes, and how what happens satisfies a prophesy made when Shishupala was a babe, and a promise made eons ago back when the universe was young.

With Jarasandha no longer a threat, The younger Pandava brothers need to go far and wide to gather tribute for the oldest brother's emperor ceremony.

Satish tells Azure about each of the brothers journeys and how it intersects with stories and characters already told. Ghatotkacha returns to help them reach the land of Lanka and the epic story of the Ramayana that took place before the Mahabharata.

Then, everyone is invited for the emperor ceremony, the Rajasuya, including the Kauravas who are fulling included in the process. But Duryhodana has an embarrassing moment that leaves a bitter and possibly false memory.

Satish welcomes his old friend Grant Boulanger to the episode. No need to hash out what has happened before this time, because Nothing Has happened. Satish begins with Vishnu's origin on the primordial ocean and the stories that led to Brahma first and then Shiva. If you listened to our last episode, you'll recognize the story of the guards of Indra's realm, Jaya and Vijaya, who finally left this earth after their time as Shishupala and Dantavakra.

Grant Boulanger is an educator, a potter, an artist.

As a Spanish teacher Grant uses methods that rely on and trust in the human brain’s unique power and ability to acquire language naturally. As part of his process he optimizes the environment for language acquisition to make it easier for students to absorbs complex rules without effort. He believes in creating the best learning environments for the brain to do its job.

Grant would like you to know about and support "Transforming Families"

Transforming Families is a community where transgender, gender non-conforming, and questioning youth and their families come together to support each other in a safe, welcoming space. At our monthly gatherings, separate breakout groups for parents, kids, siblings, and teens provide the opportunity to meet and learn from other people traveling the same path.

Families meet other families to share, talk, and hang out. We're here to listen to each other's stories, exchange resources, build community, and have fun! It's a simple idea that works.
