Title
The Dialogue between Shuka and Rambha
Description
The legendary nymph Rambha existed before the creation of the world in the churning of the Ocean of Milk. She became enamored of a sage and visited him where he sat in meditation. Despite her seductive dances and pleadings, the sage remained chaste and launched into a speech on the futility of pleasures of the flesh.
