morality. mortality. singing this song continues to help me survive the hellscape of news cycles. practice; words written by Perumal Murugan, turned into song earlier this year. commissioned by @mythiliprakash for an ongoing meditation on the myth where Shiva forces Shakti’s defeat in a dancing competition. competition, defeat, order, superiority, insecurity, lust, womanhood, manhood, illusion. it will take me a long time to be able to begin to address what this poem and Mythili’s heart did to my own, but for now, this is what I can share 1 மாயம்தான் – இது மாயம்தான் – எல்லாம் மாயம்தான் காலைத் தூக்கியதும் மாயம்தான் கீழே தள்ளியதும் மாயம்தான் அடிமை ஆக்கியதும் மாயம்தான் அனைத்தும் பறித்ததுமே மாயம்தான் மாயம் செய்து மாயம் செய்து மாற்றுவது உனக்கு வாடிக்கை மாயம் செய்து மாயம் செய்து ஏமாற்றுவ துனக்கு வேடிக்கை மாதொரு பாகனா மாதொரு பாகனா - நீ மாதொரு பாகனா மாதொரு பாகனா adding my translation because the auto translate for Tamil is... not working yet 1 illusion, surely— this is illusion, surely— everything is illusion lifting the leg was an illusion, the pushing down, was also an illusion the making-subservient, this too was illusion plucking everything— this, too, was illusion the performance of this illusion, to have performed this illusion— to change, it is an amusement to you the performance of this illusion, to have performed this illusion— to trick me, is amusing to you
