Certainly there is, but you haven't explained clearly enough what you
really want.  It sounds like you could simply be returning those objects
from a function defined in c.py and called from a.py.

My guess is you are mucking around with global variables at module 
scope level and getting yourself into a lot of trouble.

Can you explain *why* you need to refer to objects defined in another
module without referring to that module's name?  Or can you explain
why these objects are being created as globals instead of just 
returning them from a function?
