Sur l'érotique mystique indienne

Par Mircea Eliade

Toute femme nue incarne la Nature, la prakrti. On devra donc la regarder avec la même admiration et le même détachement que l’on apporte à considérer l’insondable secret de la Nature, sa capacité illimitée de création. La nudité rituelle de la yoginî a une valeur mystique intrinsèque.
« Les femmes sont les dieux, les femmes sont la vie, les femmes sont la parure..."

Mircea Eliade

Mircea Eliade (1907-1986) was a Romanian-born historian of religion, fiction writer, philosopher, professor at the University of Chicago, and one of the pre-eminent interpreters of world religion of the 20th century. Eliade was an intensely prolific author of fiction and non-fiction alike, publishing over 1,300 pieces over 60 years, including the novels Maitreyi (or Bengal Nights), Noaptea de Sânziene (The Forbidden Forest), Isabel și apele diavolului (Isabel and the Devil's Waters) and Romanul Adolescentului Miop (Diary of a Short-Sighted Adolescent), and the novellas Domnișoara Christina (Miss Christina) and Tinerețe fără tinerețe (Youth Without Youth), which was made into a feature film by Frances Ford Coppola in 2007, starring Tim Roth.
