Love

 12. On coming to know that he was being remembered, (the mind-born god of Love) whose missile was the sprout of Mango tree, appeared immediately in the company of Rati and Vasanta (i.e. the spring season).

13-16. The intelligent one (i.e. Indra) touched him (gently) smilingly and spoke to him these words: 

“O lover of Rati, of what avail is much advice to you? You live in the mind. Hence you know what is in the mind of all living beings. Still, I will tell you (something), remembering my eagerness for my own task. It behoves you, O Manmatha, to carry out a great task of mine. Mahesvara, the lord of compassion, is separated from his wife Sati. Unite him with the goddess born in the house of Himadri. When the goddess and the Lord are satisfied, they will carry out whatever you wish.”

Madana said: 

17-20. This is not true, O Lord of Devas. Indeed that Lord has taken pleasure in penance. As Manu has said, magnificence and refulgence cannot be attained by other means (than penance). In the Vedantas, the Brahmajias censure and insult me every now and then: “This Kama (Lust) is a great fire of great appetite, a great sinner. Spiritual knowledge is enveloped by this eternal enemy of wise men. Hence this Kama should be abandoned always by excellent men, as though it is a serpent. How will Mahesvara be delighted with me of such a nature? Just as Vasudeva, the preceptor of the universe, is not pleased with a sinner addicted to drinking liquor, (so is Mahesvara not delighted with me).

Indra said : 

21-25. Do not say so, O highly fortunate one. Without you, which man on the earth is competent to attain (the four aims in life, viz.) Dliarma, Artha, Kama and Mok sal Whatever is achieved in the world has Kamana (Desire) at its root. How is it then that those who aspire after salvation censure Kama? True indeed is the statement in the Veda that your form is three¬ fold, O Manmatha, viz. Tamasa, Rajasa and Sattvika. If the desire is not for liberation^) it is your Tamasa form. A mere desire for something, with the intention of having some pleasure, is your Rajasa form- The desire of a simple nature for some object is your Sattvika form. Who is it, tell me, who does not resort to one of these three forms?

26-27. You are the Great Being itself worthy of being worshipped. Carry out this task of ours. On seeing even ordinary persons afflicted learned men save them even at the cost of their own lives, while this (task) is great and has great outcome. Thinking thus, you make that task clearly manifest in every respect. 

28. On hearing this and saying “So be it”, Smara (i.e. Madana) went to Himadri. He was accompanied by Rati and Vasanta. He was richly (endowed) (supplied) with cuckoo and other parts of his army.
