At Play With Krishna: Pilgrimage Dramas From Brindavan - Softcover
Every year thousands of pilgrims travel to Brindavan, the village where Krishna is said to have lived as a child. There, in one of north India's great spiritual centres, they witness a series of religious dramas called ras lilas, whose central roles are performed by children. By translating four plays that collectively span this cycle, John Hawley provides a lively perspective on the mythology of Krishna as Hindus experience it today.
