Asimov once said that if he found he had six months to live, he would start typing faster. I, on the other hand, would weep for six months before dying due to excessive weeping. So I wrote a story to put my fear of death into perspective. Death gives life meaning. Without it, none of us would type fast enough.

Two guards atop a fortress in lanka discuss the events of the day and trade rumours. A story set in Ramayana-era Lanka, but also, oddly enough, in the here and now.

I have a problem with depictions of Hanuman where he is little more than an angry, brooding, musclebound hero. He has always meant something more to me -- someone brave enough to doubt himself. Valmiki Ramayan makes several mentions of Hanuman's fears.

So I wrote a story about self belief and put Hanuman in it. This story is a personal favourite. Also, this is the first episode I have made with sound effects in it. I hope I didn't go overboard. Let me know! Also, this is the first episode to have patrons listed in the credits at the end. Do listen till the end.

When you think about it, omnipotence is a somewhat silly idea. We assign it to our gods unthinkingly, never stopping to wonder what we are burdening them with. So I wrote a story to put myself in a god's shoes.

Some say the Buddha said " I am but a finger pointing to the moon. Don’t look at me; look at the moon." Others say the Buddha didn't say so, thus missing the point completely. And the point is missed all around us all the time. So I wrote a story about the music that Krishna is said to have played to do my part in making sure people don't miss the point.
