The Ashes of a God

by F. W. Bain

The Ashes of a God Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Synopsis:

The Ashes of the God reminds us of the legend in which Kama (the Hindu Cupid) is reduced to ashes by the opening of the third eye (the eye of wisdom) of Lord Shiwar when he tried to seduce him for his meditation with a vision of female beauty. But as F. W. Bain reminds us there is a dynamic link between love and memory and in remembrance love rises like a living Phoenix from the ashes of oblivion.
