Guest guest Posted December 4, 2003 Report Share Posted December 4, 2003 Namaste sankara menon: Thank you for the clarification. I did not understand this from your post and I appreciate the time you took to further explain.

(I don't think so.) Must a man insist that devi accept his offering? (Is she non-responsive without his force?)
