“In some respects the story of Krishna reminds us of that of Snow White, but with the genders reversed. Both Krishna and Snow White live in the woods. Krishna’s satanic uncle and Snow White’s aunt repeatedly try to kill them, attacking them in the guise of kindly strangers. Uncle and aunt both check the progress of their plans in otherworldly mirrors. Krishna is surrounded by seven maidens, as Snow White is surrounded by seven dwarves. The number seven tells us that both these sets of seven are the planets revolving around the sun.” Excerpt From: Booth, Mark. “The Sacred History.”
