Myth
Lived and breathed
In him
Every time
When
Ram shakes him
To be more virtuous
Than he believed he is
Ravana laughs in derision
Of being mere human
And revels in the success worked out
Balram tells him
To be spontaneous and emotion
As this is the joy of being human
Arjun demands of him
To be more balanced
And Poised to be perfect
Narad describes the positives
Of being diplomatic
In ways it is unpredictable
Hanuman asks him
To be more humble
Than you think you can
Shiva asks him
To be naive
As it takes off burden at times
Krishna educates him
To perform karma sans attachment
And be in search of knowledge
The more he learned
And tried to live the myths
The more erroneous he became!
As you very rightly coined the phrase – “Ant- thinking”, here we can further develop it :
“Ant- aayan….. Ant-aayan” !!
( instead of “Narayan……Narayan” ) !!

Would be a better way to worship Krishna and continue to perform karma without attachment 🙂
