“Hearing this curse of Brahmâ, the God of love shuddered with fear and cried out in great dismay, ‘O, Lord! You created me with

the object of captivating the minds of men and women and kindling amorous feelings within them. You never instructed me to make any exception in Your case. I only carried out Your mandate and have committed no sin for which I may be subjected to such a dreadful curse.—13.
