“Why Cross the Boundary”

First published by Gallery Threshold in 2011.

Notes

The title is a refrain from a poem by Annamaya (1424-1530), a major Telegu poet from Tirupati, who wrote within the context of temple worship. Though devotional in character, his writing often had an erotic cast, articulating passionate relationships between the devotee and his god.

[1] Believed to have been great devotee of Shiva, his stone image can be seen at the ancient Chidambaram Temple in Chidambaram, Tamil Nadu
