The give and take is shared, but predisposes in favour of the cowherd girls. Krishna is a great hero, defending His kingdom against formidable antagonists, but He Himself is governed by the love of Shrimati Radharani. Radharani's epithet Madana-mohanamohini, lauds Her as the 'Enchantress of the enchanter of Cupid.' The narrative comprises a timeless exposition of power-sharing among genders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor more information, visit author's website: www.arjundasadhikari.com\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Arjundas Adhikari\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1915996988\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781915996985\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Maple Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/06\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 170\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.42lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.39d","brand":"Arjundas Adhikari","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44966235799807,"sku":"9781915996985","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ebeb3ec1-30a6-43d6-89ac-0a15d1bc3020.jpg?v=1711159264","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-portrait-of-lord-shree-arjundas-adhikari-9781915996985","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
