yada yada hi dharmasya glanir bhavati bharata
abhyutthanam adharmasya tadatmanam srjamyaham
paritranaya sadhunam vinasaya ca duskrtam
dharma-samsthapanarthaya sambhavami yuge yuge'


or


Whenever and wherever there is decay
of righteousness, O Bharata,
And a rise of unrighteousness
then I manifest Myself!



According to Hindu philosophy the supreme God is present in each and every individual. So when Krishna says that I will come again and again (sambhavami yuge yuge), for me it means that in every age whenever there has been the rise of adharma it is the Krishna inside each and every one that has woken up or rose up or sprung up (Srujami aham) to tackle the bad and to restore good. From time to time many seers, leaders, prophets have been born who have been propelled or have also given rise to a mass movement comprising of common people who fight ills and establish a new system that is based on righteousness, justice and equality. For me this is the dharma that is spoken in those sentences. That is the 'dharma' He talks about.


So until we rise up ourselves and do something, nothing will happen. There are so many who live in deplorable conditions and who are taken advantage off . If we don't do anything about it that is the sleep 'dharma' has fallen into. So when a human being does not care for another human being that leads to the rise of "adharma" and we are the ones who should be fighting it.


Now linking this to CB. I belong to the minority in the forum who believe that Kanha is Radhikas inner being and in times of need she has turned to her Kanha to give her the strength to live. The above verse was played once before in the background when they show that Vishaka is vowing to spoil Radhikas life.The scene had Vishaka and amma at one side and Dev and Radhika at the other.So the evil was the pair of amma and Vishaka. Now for Radhika to fight against them she needed Dev at that point, she needed his love and care to realise her own self worth, she needed that to give her identity as a human being and not of a stone as amma has always described her....not as a replacement for Vishaka.........but as herself Radhika. Kanha or her inner being again appeared to tell her that she has to always follow the path of truth.........so she had to tell people the truth..she had to do it herself.......her inner being or Kanha rose to make her do it. Now todays scene when Shantanu and Radhika walks in......again this verse reminded me that again the Kanha in her will rise to tackle the ill.........thats how I interpretated Radhika and her Kanha and her fight with adharma. It is her self-confidence that will make her do it.....and with the help and support of loved ones, she will rise to the occasion.


Since Kanha or God is present in each and every one of us.......so long we have him to guide us or our conscience to guide us and the self confidence to support us.........with the love and support of our loved ones, each and everyone of us can fight our own battles in life and come out victorious. After all the word "impossible" itself says "I m possible"!

I am just sharing some thoughts that I have been thinking for some time. This is what I believe and I do not expect others to have the same belief........but there is no harm in sharing our beliefs.😊

misti73 - thank you for your beautiful write up. Agree, Radhika's self found confidence is really admirable.And yes Kanha has always given her the strength to bear all the pain in the past... and now given her this confidence to fight for her rights & her loved ones protection.
The day when chikna put his deal in front of her & she went to the priest in vrindavan. I feel she then realised that if chikna's truth comes out then Dev's rajpurohit thorne will be shaken. That's why she went to babuji asking for his guidance..... She has taken Chikna's challenge on and she will in every way protect Dev from him.
Today she challenged Vaishali to speak the truth..... very smart move radhika. This time she will have vaishali's understanding on her side. Also maybe this vaishali issue is somehow linked to the balgopal dream of dadimaa's! But also somewhere along the line.... it might be Dev's dad who had something to hide not vaishali. Maybe vaishali just helped him..... ???

Excellent post Misti, and one of my favourite Bhagavad Geeta verses!
I agree with almost everything you stated, especially the part about Radhika's self-confidence helping her to fight the evil around her. We may blast the CVs but they have shown two intelligent things: 1. The first thing Radhika did after meeting Shantanu and hearing his condition was visit the priest and look at the Bhrigu Shastra 2. Today without beating around the bush Radhika questioned Vaishali about what occured in PB 28 years ago. If you compare Radhika's actions and words to Dev's when Dev brought Vishaka to PB, I think clearly Radhika is handling this situation better than Dev handled the Vishaka situation. Yes, the script and dialogues still need improvement, but if the CVs can portray Radhika as the strong, determined RPtain that they have shown for the past two days without dumbing down Dev, but rather having him fight side by side with her, then I have no complaints about this track. Shantanu is far more tolerable to watch than Vishaka ever was or will be. I even find myself sympathizing with him and eager to know what his connection to Vaishali and the Purohits is. I really hope the CVs don't mess this track up!

You are welcome. Glad you liked my ramblings.😊.......As for Radhika I just want her to keep her back straigt and todeal with Chikna.........if she can survive the abuse at Shastris then she will also survive this.
Todays move of challenging Vaishali was a very smart move by Radhikas......she is giving Vaishali the option of coming clean herself and in this way maybe these two will form a partnership, which is something I would like seeing........Now I am talking about something different.......CBs main rival st the 7.30 pm time slot is Star Pluses.......Sasural Gendwa Phool which talks about a beautiful relationship between a spoilt brat of a daughter-in-law and the mother-in-law.....the TRPs of that serial is increaing day by day.......I am just wondering whether the creatives have copied that story but have reversed it.......here it is the much more mature daughter-in-law taking care of the mother-in-law. Whatever be the reaon I am liking it and will like that they donot bring in any illogical twists and turns.
Since the secret is something that is going to harm both the purohits and Dev RP position either Chikna has to be the legitimate son of Vaishali or there has to be something regarding Devs birth.........I mean Chikna being Vaishalis illegitimate issue will harm Purohits name but how will it effect Devs claim to RP.

MIsti loved ur take on Radhika and she is my favourate character of CB her acting was great and I would love to see her counter all chiknas move and try to manofy Dev and protect both her Dev and PF.She was very good today single handedly standing up to all including Chikna in her quiet firm way no one can really win her with words once she makes up her mind to argue and gets her way.😆

Sandeepa as I have said in my screenplay post the cvs do have the structure right but their screenplay is very weak.........pretty much non-existant and dialogues are either repeated or they don't make sense. Its no use if they have the right idea but cannot communicate it to the viewers.....people will be confused and they will loose interest.......all the sublime points in their plots getslost in the racket created by lack of scrrenplay and dialogues. Radhika has come a long way and I hope that they don't start ping ponging with her again.

Misti ... like you, I too think of kanha as her inner conscience. I think her inner conscience will prevent her from letting out this secret of vaish to even dev since she may be afraid that it will destroy dev's relationship with his mother

Radhika today (may13) was excellent ... she gently pushed her MIL to tell the truth. I love it when Rads goes boom boom to someone other than Dev 😆 Even chachoo had to bend down to her and address her as Rajpurohitain (albeit sarcastically) ... but he really knows which side his bread is buttered

Chachoo knows which side of the bread is buttered.......he did it sarcastically but if needed he will do what Radhika wants for his own benefit.......Actually I want to see her telling off Dev.....just to see Devs reaction 😃.
She might not directly say it but might do it indirectly.....she is at crossroads because she knows that this secret is not hers and if it is out....I mean if it is brought out by anybody other than Vaishali herself, Vaishali will go down in others eyes........specially Dev and dadi......another circle coming up?😉 So thats why she was pushing Vaishali for the truth.......giving her a explain it from her point of view.........Radhika is mature enough to know that usually there is a reason why a person acts in a particular way.

I think this track is becoming really interesting. Earlier i had to convince myself to watch CB but now im really finding it interesting. I think that Rubina's acting is becoming better everyday and i hope that the CV wont degrade radhikas character
