Quandary Resolution 1231
Garden of Eden, turncoat, mirage, afterclap
When the seer returned to his hut in the unspoiled beauty of the Garden of Eden, he saw his turncoat wife admiring a naked stranger, whom he cursed (’May your penis fall off’), not anticipating the traumatic afterclap of the curse, in which the stranger’s genitals (the linga) would wreak havoc on the Three Worlds, for the seer had failed to see - past the mirage of the intruder - that it was Lord Shiva himself who had come to test his disciple.
