Mirabai surrounded by devotees, c. 17th–18th century.
And in the body, a vast market–go there, trade,
sell yourself for a profit you can’t spend.

« REDEEM THAT GENDER Living with that guy, how could you have not gone nuts ; I bet he even lied, the coward. I know why God comes to this earth as a man, in hopes of redeeming that gender. God knows he owes us women --- big time, for the way those brutes usually act. »
Mīrābaï (v. 1498 - v. 1546), « Redeem that Gender », in (ed.) Daniel Ladinsky, Love Poems from God : Twelve Sacred Voices from the East and West, New York (USA) : Penguin Putnam Inc., 2002, p. 256.
