India Authentic #14

Description

"Ridiculed by his wife for his lack of intellectual finesse, a young man named Kalidasa embarks on a quest to achieve enlightenment. His prayers are answered when Saraswati, the goddess of knowledge & the arts and daughter of Brahma, blesses him with the wisdom of sages and prophesizes his destiny to be the greatest of all poets. Overcome by his youthful enthusiasm, the young poet hastily composes a hymn in honor of the goddess marveling at not only her wisdom and prowess, but also her ethereal beauty. Miffed by this overly familiar gesture, the goddess places a vicious curse on Kalidasa’s tongue."
