Mahamaya
By: Rabindranath Tagore
The story is all about the tradition and culture of india where there is a cremated scene. An old brahmin and his suttee (mahamaya) will be burned with him, while this is happening there is a heavy rain came and the fire went gone. Mahamaya been safe and as a promise to Rajib (her suitor) she went back to him, but in one condition.. Do not remove the veil that she's wearing. Rajib without a doubt agreed to it. But there was a tempting night came Rajib broke his promise to the lady he came near the sleeping mahamaya and removed her veil, Rajib was shocked because half face of Mahamaya was burned. Mahamaya then open her eyes and saw Rajib beside her.. Without hesitation mahamaya run away from the man and even a sorry of rajib doesn't help to make mahamaya stay.

"The lesson of the story for me is, if you want someone to stay with you just stick on your promises and no matter what, do not break it, because love cannot live without trust"
