Savitri remembers that today is the fateful day that her beloved husband, Satyavan must die. For a while, her mind travels back through the memories of her life. One year ago, Love came to Savitri, hiding the shadow, Death. Today is the day that Savitri’s immortal spirit must come forward. With her soul’s force she must change the destiny created in the past. She must look into the eyes of Almighty Death, and she must conquer him with her right to be and to love. The great Immortal Spirit of Love found a perfect home in Savitri. All in her pointed to a nobler kind. Love in her was wider than the universe, the whole world could take refuge in her single heart.
