This book is very very special. A king calle Pururava falls in love with Urvashi the maiden of heaven. She too loves him. But there was a curse to her that she could have either husband or the child with her, not both at a time. So her chil is brought up in sage's hermitage. The boy is named as Ayu. Pururava wants to achieve godlines. Conversation between him and Urvashi is special to be read by young lovers and as well as middle age couples. I am translating it into English. for example Urvashi tells pururava: "Like a small creeper I shall sleep, In your arms that would ever care. Like a restless brook I shall leap, On thy bossom and get lost there. "
