I wasn't aware of this legend and am glad to learn something new.

Also, the quotes in this article are particularly striking. I especially like this one:

"Every people, every society, needs a culture of resistance, a culture of being difficult and disobedient, that is the only way they will ever be able to stand up to the inevitable abuse of power by whoever runs the state apparatus, the capitalists, the communists, the socialists, the Gandhians, whoever." ~ Arundhati Roy
