The Banana Peel in Vidura's Kitchen
The smallest heart in the smallest kitchen — the heart of a baby only just felt — is known and loved by the Most Loving One. Wealth, walls, and grand feasts do not impress that love. Only love impresses that love.
Hearts that love me cannot hide from me. Especially the smallest hearts.
In the city of Hastinapur, in the great palace of the king, there lived a quiet man whose name was Vidura.
Vidura was the king's half-brother. He was a minister. He was wise, soft-spoken, and very kind. He lived in a small house on the edge of the palace gardens with his wife, Sulabha.
