Kumarasambhava ("Prince's Birth") is one of Kalidasa's best literary works.
Kalidasa is widely regarded as the greatest classical
Sanskrit poet.
The Kumarasambhava is a mythologically inspired epic poetry.
It starts with the ascension of Taraka, a demon who obtains
a holy gift that he can only be destroyed by a Shiva son.
The poem tells the story of Shiva and Parvati's long
romance, marriage, and lovemaking.
The narrative stops before the birth of the deity Skanda,
who is said to have killed Taraka in other mythological versions of the story.
Because of the sudden conclusion, some interpreters believe
the play is incomplete.
Others see these subsequent occurrences as a predetermined
conclusion, allowing the poet to avoid wasting his audience's time.
