Those who can sit with her—truly sit, without running toward or away from the burning coil of desire—learn something vital. They learn that hunger is not sin. It is simply energy. And energy, unjudged, can be transmuted. In the highest rites, the feared pisacha becomes the fuel for stillness. The fire that would burn down the house becomes the light in the lantern.
