The Universe Family
This is just the concept. It was enacted with full dialogues, dance, costumes, lighting on a revolving platform. The sun’s dress was golden, moon’s was milky white and stars twinkling white and the cloud was grey. The revolving platform was used to show grahan effect.
This story is about a family called universe, headed by sun Mr. Suraj, his wife moon as Chandni and their children the shining stars. Though Mr. and Mrs. (sun and moon) never see eye to eye but their affectionate bond is so great that the wife is a reflection of the husband. The universe family is so big Suraj could take care of only half of the family at a time and his wife Chandni takes care of the other half. Now meet Mrs. Chandni “c”mon children play with me , dance with me don’t get scared.your father has gone out.He will not be back for few hours(they started playing and dancing.) Wait wait wait my children. I think your father Suraj is coming is back.’
Meet Mr. Suraj the sun, the force behind the universe family. All powerful and omnipotent. Two children of the family are more attached with father Suraj.(that’s why sometimes you happen to see one or two stars along with the sun.) so sad this family is also not without enemy. Whom we call as CLOUD. He tries to over shadow the family. Sometimes he succeeds and on other times he could only cover the children. Though Suraj and Chandni never come infront of each other but after all you know they are also husband and wife and try to follow one another’s path which results one coming in the way of the other. This great union is called GRAHAN. Chandni comes in front of her husband and Suraj stays in the dark that we call Surya grahan and sometimes Suraj comes in front of Chandni and Chandni stays in the dark that we call as Chandra grahan.
This universe family story will never end. How can I tell you the end when the creator of this great universe family himself is not aware. But all I can say as you see, like any other family this family is also having attachment and is bonded by the affection and the head of the family Suraj holds the reins. Can we name the universe family after the father as SOLAR SYSTEM ?
So children we all have a lesson to learn from this universe family, go as per elders direction, follow the rule for harmonious and peaceful co-existence.
This is just the concept. It was enacted with full dialogues, dance, costumes, lighting on a revolving platform. The sun’s dress was golden, moon’s was milky white and stars twinkling white and the cloud was grey. The revolving platform was used to show grahan effect.
What stayed with you?
A line that lingered, a feeling, a disagreement. Great comments are as valuable as the original piece.

Hi This is great! How well you have explained the whole concept of universe. Keep It up. looking forward for more! Best of luck! [ Reply to this ]
Hi, The concept is great. But its from the viewpoint of earthlings. What happened to the other children... mars, venus, jupiter... why are they sad and red and dark and spinning away from mother and father? Why does mother only love earth? This is not a family... it is the madness of a roller coaster without seat belts... all you can do is hold on to the air and feel the chaos. The concept is great... but the family is dysfunctional!

i'd like to recommend Italo Calvino's "Cosmicomics"....12 stories about the universe as a cosmic joke.worth a dekko for those attempting to understand/ explain/ rethink Creation.
