Same sex embracing in scripture (Mystery of the 5M)

[Guest guest]

Namaste everyone.

 

The verse I was thinking of is

 

purushah purusham mohad alingaty ananganam

 

Kularnava Tantra chapter 8 verse 68

 

a man, fascinated, embraces a man not a woman

 

This verse is a passage describing unconventional behavior which

expresses what the immediately preceding verse (67) calls praudhanta

ullasa or fully ripened bliss.

 

Make what you will of it...

 

Om Shantih
