## Synopsis
A Krishna story from the Bhagavata Purana, retold: in the cowherd village of Vraja, young Krishna persuades his people to honour Govardhan Hill, their cows and the Brahmins instead of making their yearly offering to Indra. The angry king of the gods sends a seven-day storm, and the child lifts the whole hill on one finger so that all of Vraja can shelter beneath it. It is the tale remembered every year at Govardhan Puja. An AI-assisted retelling of the myth "Krishna Lifts Govardhan Hill" from India.
