The Great Quest

A dramatic feature film based on the true life of Siddhatta Gotama, the Buddha

3. Yasodara's dream

Yasodara screams as she runs through a deserted courtyard.
YASODARA
Stop the bull! Oh, please stop the bull!
A splendid white bull with long horns and a bright gem shining on its forehead marches steadfastly toward the gate. She grabs the bull by the neck, tries to restrain it.
YASODARA
Help me! Help!
CELESTIAL BEING  (O.S.)
It must be.
A CELESTIAL BEING manifests in front of the bull. His translucent human like form glows a bright golden hue, his clothing and ornaments glitter.
The bull raises his head, acknowledges the Being.
YASODARA
Why?
CELESTIAL BEING
The bull has its destiny...
The Celestial Being pets the bull's head.
CELESTIAL BEING
And so do you.
Both the Celestial Being and the bull disappear. Yasodara looks out the gate.
The bull stands a hundred yards away on a hill facing her. He raises his head, BELLOWS long. He disappears down the other side.
