Reading Notes: Sacred Tales of India Part B



bride of yama
lost bull, sister helping brother - **
stolen bull
they had to perform a ceremony to get the bull back
family member gets kidnapped, kidnapper makes you do something to get them back - don’t really want to write that, but could just change details of this story
Kausik became king, sister went to forbidden place
mom being punished for sins, king can help her but refuses
i could modernize all this, but I like this story so maybe i could just change some details
mom lived, i could maybe make it so that king does help her and that would change the ending

goddess who devoured elephants
woman doesn’t like her husband
could change the goddess granting wishes to God, (Christianity) and changes the wishes to prayers
switched to king in prison cell
i don’t like this story as much

i like the bride of yama and think i could change some of the details to make a good story out of it. i could modernize it just ab it, but keep the main plot and all the characters just change minor things
