Bali's Son and Tilakottamä Are Cursed by a Brähmana

Chapter 23: Verse 121-130

ENGLISH TRANSLATION 121.After speaking these words, the unchaste woman held the demon to her chest. By the touch of her lover's body she was overcome with pleasure. 122.The unchaste woman's words and embraces inflamed his desires as ghee inflames a lamp shining in a dark passage. 123.O sage, the demon enjoyed sex with her in eight different ways. He appropriately kissed the different parts of her body in nine different ways. 124.With his nails and teeth he played with her in many ways again and again. Her bracelets and ornaments gave out a great jangling sound. 125.That sound broke the meditation of Durväsä Muni who, there all along, could not be seen because he was covered by ants. 126.Durväsä Muni had been sitting in a yoga posture in that cave of Mount Gandhamädana and meditating on the lotus feet of Lord Kåñëa, who is present everywhere as the Supersoul. 127.Lust filled the hearts of the amorous couple and destroyed their intelligence. Their eyes never fell on the great sage so near to them. 128.Suddenly regaining external consciousness, the effulgent sage opened his eyes and saw the couple before him. 129.Seeing the embracing couple so bewildered by lust they did not know if it was day or night, the powerful sage, who was a partial incarnation of Lord Çiva, became angry. 130.His eyes now red lotus flowers and his heart agitated because he could not longer see Lord Kåñëa's lotus feet in meditation, the sage spoke to the couple when their playing ended.
