Blood on the river Saraswati: May 2012
http://rigvedafiction.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Blood on the river Saraswati. Glossary of names and places. Saturday, 5 May 2012. Monsoon arrives in Arya land. The clouds had begun to gather and shrouded the afternoon in darkness. The rain lashed at everything in its wake. The Ahichhatrans sought refuge inside their ill-equipped homes. But, despite the apparent threat and obvious inconvenience, they bore no grudge. After all, the torrent was but a manifestation of the Maruts and in any case, the rain would nourish the grazing lands. In far away Vrinda...

Blood on the river Saraswati. Glossary of names and places. Saturday, 24 March 2012. A war machinery set in motion. A shower or arrows rained on the herd, killing most instantly.

Blood on the river Saraswati. Glossary of names and places. Sunday, 22 January 2012. Payu travels to Vrindavan, capital of the Vrcivans. The occasional call of the male tittri (commonly known as teetar in Hindi or the Gray Francolin in English) was all that broke the monotony of Payu’s ride out of the South Panchala outpost (close to modern day Etah, Uttar Pradesh, India) towards Vrindavan, the capital of the Vrcivans. Payu had not expected such a treacherous route to Vrindavan. Thirst quenched, man and ...

Short stories and an occassional poem. Thursday, August 11, 2011. Aitai Jeebon (This is life). Directly eight floors below, Mandar Kadam, a sales representative of a medical equipment company was animatedly describing the features of a new ventilator model to Susheel Shinde, the hospital’s Purchase Manager. Way behind on his quarterly targets, he had to convert this one. Earlier in the day, his Manager had issued an ultimatum – close a deal soon or look for another job. In the ICU, Richa felt Punit’...

Blood on the river Saraswati. Glossary of names and places. Friday, 12 August 2011. A yagna before the journey. It was a day before the Panchala royals were to set out on their journey to Rishi Bharadvaja’s ashram. Crowds had begun to gather at the centre of the Ahichhatra where a yagna was being arranged. The yagna would be performed by Dabhiti himself to seek and secure a safe journey of the royals by invoking Pusan, the deva who showed the way. Praise in the name of Vadhryasva and Menaka rent the air ...
