Prophecy as a conversation between lovers, seeing the divine in the face of your most intimate one - what can you do but cry?

“Parth” said Krishna, his hands soft as lotus touching Arjun’s head….

“Pick up your bow and fulfil the destiny of these warriors and even if you do not fight today, I’ll slaughter them all for I am death, the destroyer of the worlds.” He said., the words echoing in that timeless moment and in it Arjun heard the sound of the impending annihilation but his friend, his god- Krishna had a smile on his face as if he hadn’t just spoken the most terrifying words from those two smiling lips.

So I was feeling very bored and decided to write some prompts for an ai app I found on the app store, and Istg that I was trying to make a cutesy anime girl but somehow, when I hit the generate button it kind of gave me krishnarjun AI art???

Haha, I wonder how that happened-

Also,I would just like to point out that the ethics of AI is pretty fucked. As an artist myself, I consider the 'art theft' the ai system is doing pretty horrendous, so I was hit with an instantaneous guilty feeling when these pics were generated. I'm pretty sure these pics are made with some poor artists work that they didnt consent to be used beforehand, so again, I'm so sorry for using this. I genuinely wanted to draw something but I also wanted the krishnarjun brainrot to end. So thats why these exist.

Also, I had to do some editing (the AI made them white AF for some reason even though I specifically asked for darker skin tones multiples!! Times)

please excuse my very horrible anatomy and coloring skills and look at how my wittle baby is blushing while holding the fluteboy's flute~ *convulses and dies and comes back*

(Also fictional gay people give real life gay people insomnia and anxiety-

Source? Trust me babygurl ;)

Is that how Krishna talks to arjun, I bet that's how that madlad talks to him)

and while we are at it, have this line-art version too (which Imo looks waaay better than the colored one, Idk but it kind-of feels like it conveys the very gay and very pinining vibes of the artwork better)

(I might post the line-art version separately just because)

Anyway, I'm done sinning for the night bye bye (who am I kidding, its always sinning time)

(PS: Im actually typing this out for the secondth time because this site decided to Betray me for some reason- (sigh, tumblr I love u so I won't bitch about u this time)

Hello hello hello, krishnarjun fandom, it is I! The very new addition to this chaos that is the Krishna x arjun tumbr blog-verse

[julians-cutlery]

HI! I've been reading through some old posts and i was wondering if you could explain how Arjun did raas with lord krishna? <3

Hello!

So the bit you're referring to is not actually from the Mahabharat. It's from the Padma Purana's pātāla-khanda.

This tiny story is a part of the dialogue that occurs between two people in the future as is the typical narrative style of these tales. It goes something like:

Arjun is curious to know all sorts of details about the raas-leela- where does it happen, how many gopis are there, who are they etc etc. Krishna is cryptic, as usual, and tells him that a man simply cannot perceive it even if the said man is more precious to him than life itself to him. Therefore, it's no use asking. Arjun is Disappointed™. Krishna is soft for him so he tells him it's fine and that he shouldn't worry about it because he'll see for himself. Then he instructs him to go to a goddess(Tripāsundari, to be exact) who will help him.

Arjun goes to her, prays to her and calls to her. She appears, pleased by his devotion and adoration. She also asks him a rhetorical question, that I personally find funny, which basically is along the lines of "What makes you so special that Krishna is letting you have this one thing that no other mortal, deity or ascetic can have?" She doesn't wait for an answer, because I think she already knew and then proceeds to give Arjun a list of prayer related tasks to worship her properly. After he follows her instructions, she and her friend show him Radha's house and vrindavan. Then she tells him to take dip in an auspicious lake and he does and emerges as a beautiful woman.

(At this point, I will be using she/her pronouns for Arjun/Arjuni because that's what the story says.)

Arjuni rises from the lake, having forgotten everything about her male self. There's a lot of poetic waxing about how alluring and attractive her voice, physicality and personality are. She happens upon a bunch of women(the gopis, obviously) who are equally as beautiful and charming as her. All the gopis are very lovely, actually and ask her who she is and how she happened to end up there and kind of soothe Arjuni's anxiety and then all of them introduce themselves. They say that they used to sages in their past life and are now gopis who participate in raas leela with Krishna.

They take her to lake, play with her, bathe her etc etc. It's all VERY sapphic, trust me. There's also a lot of praying involved. After the initiation is over, Arjuni meets Radha. More praying and devotion.

Pleased by all this devotion, Krishna asks Radha to bring Arjuni to him who promptly breaks out into sweaty excitement upon seeing him.

(Okay, now, I guess I'm obligated to inform you that what follows is very...sexual in nature. BUT a lot of Indian spiritual texts consider the sexual and the spiritual to be interconnected. Take from this what you will, I guess.)

The text goes on to describe Krishna's body in HEAVY detail (including equating his thighs to tree trunks?) that makes me genuinely worried that whoever wrote this was incredibly horny. He takes her hand and they um... participate in the leela.

When it's over, Arjuni is Exhausted from all the activity and Krishna tells her to go take a dip in the lake again. She does.

(Back to he/him pronouns people, keep up.)

Arjun surfaces and is dejected from the loss of something so wonderful. Krishna consoles him by saying that they are Dear Friends, as the historians say, and that only he knows something that no one else in three loka does. And if Arjun tells anyone what he has experienced he will curse Krishna. Again, hilarious because if you remember I said that this story is being told to us in a dialogue of TWO DIFFERENT PEOPLE. Which means other people already know. Clownery of the highest order, really.

And then they go home. The end?

I hope this helps. I paraphrased a lot but I couldn't just paste the entire thing here. I've given you all the tools to go search for orginal text and translation yourself.

TL: DR Arjun gets instant lake-HRT for one night, participates in the raas-leela, and then goes home.

@eremin0109​ made a post or wrote some tags where she explains that Ved Vyas actually made Arjuna/Krishna canon in the Padma Purana, and it absolutely must be shared.

So Arjuna approaches Krishna in anguish, needing to know about the rasleela.

Krishna decides he’s not going to tell Arjuna about it because Arjuna is going to experience it.

Arjuna approaches Tripurasundari to help him experience this, as per Krishna’s instructions.

Arjuna pleases Tripurasundari and enters a special lake that turns him into a beautiful woman, Arjuni.

Arjuni meets the gopis and is taken to Krishna whose reaction is very 😉💖. Arjuni is so overcome with love and desire that she literally falls to the ground, barely manages to stand up again, and has so many overpowering feelings for Krishna that she trembles, has goosebumps all over, and is sweating. 🥵

Krishna grabs Arjuni’s hand and goes to “”sport”” with her all over the entire forest to the point where Arjuni is exhausted by all the wild “”sport”” they’ve been having. Krishna has to guide her by the shoulder just so that she can walk, and she has to be guided again to go take a relaxing bath in the special lake.

Arjuna gets his male body back once he gets into the lake but is completely broken and depressed because it’s over and he is no longer united closely with Krishna. But Krishna touches Arjuna and brings him back to mental health, and Arjuna goes home “with his mind delighted and having wonderful recollections.”

Vyas shipped it first, what can I say? 🤷🏻‍♀️😉
