Vrindavan, once echoing with laughter and the melody of Krishna's flute, now lies in a hush, as if nature itself mourns the moment. At the threshold of their humble home, Krishna stands with his elder brother Balram, poised to leave behind his childhood and embrace a destiny far greater.
Before him stands Yashoda, her heart breaking, her hands trembling as she clings to the boy she raised with boundless love. Though not her son by birth, he is the soul of her being, the light of her life. And now, he is leaving.
Krishna, the divine child who once danced beneath the moon and stole butter with a smile, cannot bear to see his mother weep. For all his wisdom, in this moment, he is just a son - torn between love and duty, between the comfort of her arms and the call of fate.
This one-shot captures their final, heartrending conversation - a moment where words falter and silence speaks louder. It is the last goodbye between a mother and the child of her heart, before he walks the path to greatness, leaving a part of himself behind in Vrindavan forever.

Mahabharats Unknown Mistress
The greenish-blue orbs stared at the group gathering below as she hide behind the curtain watching the crowd. Maharishi, gurus, yogis from all over were sitting infront if the large fire chanting the sacred mantras. Her kohl drawn eyes widened as she let out a gasp,stumbling behind. Her face turned into a rosy flush as a strong hand gripped her shoulders, preventing her from falling down. " Brother...I," She began, blushing brightly as the man placed his finger on her pale lips before walking past her. She pouted and elbowed his ribs, peering from behind him. " I want to see! What's so special ?" She huffed,crossing her hands over her chest as she pouted. " Curiosity Killed the Cat...Come along...if Maharaj found us sneaking around...he would be extremely displeased," The handsome man said as he gripped her hand firmly and dragged her away. She turned her face and sighed seeing Maharaj Draupad face beaming with pride and happiness as he loudly proclaimed that Lord Shiva has blessed him and the entire Panchal nation. " Will he ever look at me like that?," she asked in a forlorn tone causing the elder man to sigh and wrap his arms around her. " I hope not! You my little one deserves more than his desire for revenge," Satyajit said as he pat her shoulder. ****************************************** Aaratrika's life changed the moment her parents conducted the yagna.

Krishna Katha
Sri Krishna is the beloved Boatman who untiringly plies His Boat of Consciousness between our unparalleled thoughts and his unrivalled spirituality. For our Kanha, the Gita is his Heart, his Vision, his Fulfilment. For us, the Gita is humanity's breath, its journey towards Moksh Prapti. Madhav's melodious flute stirs the universal consciousness and enchants the transcendental consciousness. Dwarkadheesh is the shoreless ocean of bliss. But as soon as we sincerely dedicate ourselves in service of his Lotus feet, he presents us with his own boat and takes us to the boundless Shore, just like his Ardhangini, the golden of all. It would be an understatement to describe Lakshmipati, the supreme god head with these few little words. But Devkinandan would never decline his devotees' sweet offerings. Even the smallest, selfless act of love would be enough to engulf our Prathsarthy in an embrace of gratitude. And thats the reason, we have done a small yet dedicated attempt to pour down our thoughts, our heartfelt messages , giving another aspect to the events casued by the famous, yet infamous warfare of Mahabharat. From Madhav to RukminiVallabh And from Govind to Banke Bhihari, Krishna Kathaa contains the characters mentioned in Shrimad Bhadwad, wishing Trilokinath on the auspicious occasion of Janmasthami and turning the pages of history only to retell the intersting story behind the names our darling of Vrindavan had accquired during his time on mrityu lok.Complete

Krishna's Dimension (Ft.21st Century)
Imagine walking alone at dawn, the soft whispers of leaves and the distant melody of birds surrounding me. Their rhythm feels strangely familiar, almost as if nature itself is sending me messages from Him-Krishna. But today, something is different. His presence isn't just in my thoughts-it's everywhere, like He's calling me. Without knowing why, my steps lead me far from home, to an ancient, hidden temple in middle of the forest. Inside, the air is thick with mystery, and in the shadows stands a statue of Him-Shyam, more breathtaking than anything I've ever dreamed. As I move closer, my heart races, my legs tremble, but I can't stop. Then, suddenly, I hear His voice. "Who are you talking to? I'm right here..." I turn around, and there He is-not as a distant deity, but standing before me in human form. His eyes are playful, His presence both enchanting and overwhelming. But then, He shakes my very soul with a challenge-an impossible bet. "Come with me to my time. Live with me, prove that you can take care for me there.... And if you succeed, I will stay with you... in the 21st century." One choice.... One journey that could change everything. Can I dare to step into His world, walk beside Him in the realm of his dimension and legends? And what happens when the divine crosses into the modern world?.... This isn't just a story of love-it's a journey between two worlds. A Magic of devotion, desire, and destiny. ●◆●◆●◆●◆●◆●◆●◆●●●●●●●●◆ ... .. . So finallyyy a new journey started with krishna .......

Gandiva : Before The Rise Of Kalki [Reincarnated As Dhananjaya Arjun 🦚]
Cover credit: 444-av (A kind soul from reddit, who helped me out. Thanks a lot🩷) Parth, a teenager from the year 2071, never believed his dreams could rewrite fate - until he woke up as Arjun of the Mahabharata. But destiny plays strange games. In a universe where Kurukshetra never happened, Parth learns that he isn't merely reborn as Arjun - he is Arjun himself, reborn across timelines. Guided by his Madhav's unseen hand, he enters a world where Karna sits on Hastinapur's throne, Kunti's truth is no longer a secret, and peace reigns where war once should have. His grandmother, the quiet woman he'd known all his life, turns out to be Satyavati herself, reborn to witness the world she had once dreamed of - a world where her dynasty did not bleed itself dry. Between love and duty, Parth lives the lives Arjun was denied - the laughter with Draupadi, the tenderness with Subhadra, and the quiet fulfillment of a wish once whispered to Krishna. But the wish was never the end. It was only a beginning. Without warning, Parth wakes up again - this time in 2072, with no divine voices, no weapons, and no idea why he's back. Seeking meaning, he follows his father's path and becomes a doctor, vowing to help those he can. Until strange things begin to stir. Disappearing students. Electric static that hums like divine energy. Symbols that glow. And the faces around him - Sia, Aarav, Neel, Avni, Meera - feel achingly familiar, as if pulled from a life he once fought beside. As whispers of the seven immortals resurface and the shadows of Ghor Kaliyug creep closer, Parth begins to remember why he was reborn - not to escape destiny, but to lead what remains of the good into the dawn of a new Yuga. ●Past name- ■Reincarnated As Dhananjaya Arjun(I regret changing it because of my attachment issue. Lol)

There are two primary choices in life : to accept conditions as they exist or accept responsibility for changing them - Devakinandana Vāsudeva Krishna. "You know what is right and what is wrong, husband," She said softly, looking into his dark eyes filled with emotional turmoil, "But be assured that you would have take responsibility for your actions." Radheya glanced at the child, Arjuna's son, sprawled on the ground bleeding from various places. His beloved wife's words, spoken when he broke down in front of her after he found out his birth truth, played ceaselessly in his mind. Her voice had been firm and unyielding that day. She had given him the strength he had needed to make the decision to stay with Duryodhana till the end. But...this? He gulped, wondering if he could watch his nephew's death, so near to his eyes. Should he interfere? But hasn't this boy killed his beloved Laxmana? 'What actions you take, remember you would be liable for it,' Radheya thought, a frustrated sigh escaping his lips. Closing his eyes, he made a decision. He just hoped his darling wife would support him in this, otherwise, he had no idea how he would deal with the mess he was about to create. ?️#6 in Kunti ?️#5 in BhishmaComplete
