Quote of the Day: old Indian tales

[timelets]

Betaal stops and asks King Vikram this question: Who among the three suitors should be the husband of Mandaravati? Vikram replies with a lot of thought, "The person who gave her the life by reciting the spell is her creator, it could be her father. The person who took her bones to Ganges shall be her son. But the person who committed himself to the ground and slept on her ashes out of love, can be her husband."
