(According to one idea Desire  is  the  creator  and  sustainer  of  things, -

Desire and Ignorance . By losing desire one passes beyond the Ignorance,

as by passing beyond Ignorance one loses desire; then the created world is

surpassed and the soul enters into the Divine Reality. Kama here speaks as

Desire the Creator, an outgoing power from the Bliss of the Divine Reality

to which, abandoning desire, one returns, ãnandam brahmano vidvãn,

 possessing the bliss of the Brahman.)

O desolations vast, O seas of space

Unpeopled, realms of an unfertile light,

Grow multitudinous with living forms,

Enamoured of desire! I send My breath

Into the heart of being and the storm

Of sweet attraction shall break up its calm

With quivering passionate intensity,

And silence change to a melodious cry,

And all the world be rose. Out of my heart

Suns shall flame up into the pitiless void

And the stars wheel in magic dances round

Weaving the web of mortal life. For I

Am love, am passion. I create the world.

I am the only Brahma. My desire

Takes many forms; I change and wheel and race

And with me runs creation. I preserve,

For I am love. I weary of myself,

And the world circles back into the Vast.

Delight and laughter walking hand in hand

Go with me, and I play with grief and pain.

I am the dance of Krishna, I the dance

Of Kali, Might and Majesty are mine.

And I can make the heart a child at play,

The soul of things a woman full of bliss.

Hunger and Thirst, arise and make the world!

Delight, go down and give it strength to live!

O ether, change! O breath of things, grow full

Of the perpetual whirl! Break out, O fire,

In seas of magic colour, infinite waves

Of rainbow light! Thou liquid element,

 Be sap, be taste in all created things

To please the senses. Thou, O solid earth,
Enter into all life, support the worlds.

I send forth joy to cheer the hearts of men,

I send forth law to harmonise and rule.

And when these things are done, when men have learned

My beauty, My desirability, My bliss,

I will conceal myself from their desire

And make this rule of the eternal chase,

“They who abandon Me, shall to all time

Clasp and possess; they who pursue, shall lose.”
