Correspondences 49

from Taurus by following the path of equinoxes there is
the Lord of the fiery gateway (Veerabhadra) who gives the
penal sign of the throat cut. Here the head of the year-god
is cut off and replaced by that of a ram. All this put
together forms a profound symbolism which is at present
left to the intuition of the reader. The reader will be
specially benefited if he reads these stories of the
Pura-n.a-s in full and tries to find the correspondences in
himself.
