The Divine Substance

Birth, and copulation, and death.
That`s all, that`s all, that`s all, that`s all,
Birth, and copulation, and death.
-- T.S.Elliot

When the divine life substance is about to put forth the universe,
the cosmic waters grow a thousand-petaled lotus of pure gold,
radiant as the sun.

Padmapani - Lotus in Hand
She exhibits her breasts with the familiar maternal gesturel;
they are the source of the abundant milk that gives life
to the universe and its beings.
The right hand is held downward in varadamudra,
"gesture of granting gifts",
while the left holds up the lotus symbol.

Indian Poetry

Beauty is not
in what the words say
but in that which they say without saying it:
not naked, but through a veil,
breasts become desirable.
--Vallana

---------------------------------------

The lamp of love had almost reached nirvana
but it wanted to see what those two would do
when they were doing it: curious, it stretched its neck
and, seeing what is saw, let out a puff of smoke.

---------------------------------------

When the ankle bracelet is still,
earrings and necklaces jangle;
when the man grows tired,
his determined lover relieves him.

---------------------------------------

Desire pushes her toward the encounter,
mistrust holds her back;
a silken banner, fluttering, limp,
furling and unfurling in the wind.
--Kalidasa
