"Translation of ancient writings is a many-edged sword. The advantage is that you are presenting works that have stood the test of time; they obviously appeal to the human condition. However, they are also taken centuries out of context. Oh, yes, and " Read more of this review »

“She does every little thing I like,’ he gushes.
Little does he know
he likes every little thing she does.”
Suhas Mahesh, How to Love in Sanskrit

“Seeing the lovely red
of your lips, darling
the cherries hang themselves
from a tree in despair.”
Suhas Mahesh, How to Love in Sanskrit

“Dear God,
make him hang out
with other women more.
He does not seem to realize
what a catch I am.”

“She does every little thing I like,’ he gushes.
Little does he know

Suhas Mahesh, How to Love in Sanskrit

“54. Every time you touch me

It teeters on that edge
between pleasure and pain.
Is it a daze? A dream?
Poison swirling in my veins?
Or is it madness?
Your every touch
blurs my senses
with a numbing cold
and a searing heat
all at once.

What Rama Did Next, Bhavabhuti, 700 CE, Kanyakubja”
Anusha Rao, How to Love in Sanskrit

“74. I’m no hero

They say that Rama,
parted from Sita,
held back the mighty ocean
to build a bridge.
And here I am,
parted from her –
can’t even
hold back
a few tears.

Vidyakara Mishra’s Thousand, 1800 CE”
Anusha Rao, How to Love in Sanskrit
