(A sexual ritual prescribed to purify a woman who has committed sexual sins)

"A woman who has been unchaste should worship Siva in his calm aspect, Siva who is Kama. Then she should summon a Brahmin and give herself to him, thinking, 'This is Kama who has come for the sake of sexual pleasure.' Andwhatever the Brahmin wishes, the sensuous woman should do. For thirteen months she should honour in this way any Brahmin who comes to the house for the sake of sexual pleasures, and there is no immorality in this for noble ladies or prostitutes."


Perhaps Dasa (or Robbie) could provide some reasonable context for the above, or perhaps an insightful allegory? Perhaps the above translation is corrupt and the original is far more pucker? - Perhaps it wasn't for the benefit of Brahmin to have lots of easy sex...

Have you done no research yourself? Perhaps you might begin there?

It doesn't say much for your IQ to have a mental age of 12, unless of course you are 12.

I wonder if Dasa has ever looked up anything related to Hindu temple prostitution. Sick religion.

Have you considered any alternative perspectives?

It seems neither Dasa or robbie is up for the challenge of offering a "reasonable context", even though their motivations for copping out in this way are separate and different.
