Vasava An Untold Story 1/Many

Vasava An untold story The story as Vasavadutta originally conceived and written by my late father Dr.Amar Nath Kapoor* in Hindi many many years back, but Accidentally the major portion of his hand written manuscript got lost with many of his other hand written manuscripts during his lifetime itself. He had a deep attachment for this unique story belonging to the period of Guam Buddha 559 BC. Since I had heard him reciting this story when the manuscript was present I am trying to rewrite this unique story, as was wished by my late father. Hope my poetry soup friends would find it a unique story portraying a beautiful character of a dancer Vasavadutta or Vasava, who was an embodiment of beauty. Her life changed completely when she came to see Gautama Buddha. I am rewriting his idea and story in English and hope to have your both types of comments as you find and feel, as it is always precious for me.
