Shukra Monologue from The Judgment of Indra

From The Judgment of Indra by Dhan Gopal Mukerji

male · defiant · 1:04 min

Erring Soul, do not blaspheme your creator. He is the God of Truth—God of Love. Old Man. God of Love,— How can He be God of Love if He dries up the stream of thy heart and blinds thy reason as the clouds blind the eyes of the Sun? Nay, thou liest. It is not the God of Love, but the God of thine insane self—self-love that makes thee rob thy mother of her only joy in life. I—yea, I will answer to God for thee. If, by coming to see thy mother, thou sinnest, I ask God to make me pay for thy sin. Come, obey thy father,—I will take the burden of thy sin, if sin it be.
