Savitri’s daily life became a sacrifice and a growing passion of love.
At the Feet of The Mother
Canto I: The Joy of Union; the Ordeal of the Foreknowledge of Death and the Heart’s Grief and Pain
Love longs for intensity and eternity but can one have it in a body so fragile and a life so restless.
Savitri at this juncture leads a strange life carrying her grief within silently whereas giving happiness and service to all who are around.
Even as a woman who had not yet taken to yoga we glimpse a beautiful noble personality in Savitri.
The passage of days were increasingly burdened with grief as the date of prophesy drew near.
Savitri began to move between the joy of togetherness with Satyavan and the grief of the future doom as foreseen by Narad.
Savitri experiences the joy of union with Satyavan, her lover and beloved and for whom she was willing to take on the challenge of fate.
Savitri arrives to her place of destiny to live with Satyavan along with his parents.
The King’s retinue arrives along with Savitri, the golden bride, once a princess, to the home of Satyavan.
