Draupadi, his friend and confidante, is eager to know if Krishna ever desired her romantically. Satyabhama, who came into his life carrying the Syamantak diamond in her trousseau, and dazzled him with her beauty and charm, grapples with the meaning of their marriage. The self-assured, erudite royal consort Rukmini, the most precious of his 16,008 wives, asks him why he is embarking upon moksha alone when she was a fellow traveller on his journeys through dharma, artha and kama. In his final moments, he reminisces about his time in the mortal world, and the women in his life appear before him.
Near the confluence of the Saraswati, Kapila and Hiranya rivers, Krishna lies under an Aswattha tree, fatally wounded by Jara s arrow. You will suffer a beastly death die lonely, helpless and aggrieved.
