The Perishable is the Pradhana, the Immortal and Imperishable is Hara; the one God rules the Perishable and the Self. Up. And 'The sacred verses, the offerings, the sacrifices, the vows, the past, the future, and all that the Vcdas declare from that the Ruler of Maya creates all this; and in this the other one is bound up through Maya. Up.
Of three eyes and mighty arms, he is called Rudra, with his locks tied in the shape of a crown, and his body attired in skins. That boon-giving lord of the universe, that Supreme Deity, is also called Hara and Sthanu.

He dropped the miniature and ground it savagely to powder with his heel, heedless of O Hara San's sharp cry of distress, and turned to the railing gripping it with shaking hands. "Damn him, damn him!" Why had instinct never warned him? Why had he, knowing the girl's mixed parentage and knowing his own family history, made no inquiries? A wave of sick loathing swept over him.

Uttering the praises of Mahadeva and spreading an effulgent light all around, desirous of enhancing the honour of Ashvatthama and the glory of the high-souled Hara, and wishing to ascertain the extent of Ashvatthama's energy, and desirous also of beholding the slaughter during the hour of sleep, armed with terrible and fierce bludgeons and fiery wheels and battle-axes, that crowd of strange beings, endued with terrible forms, came from every side.
Kunda, sitting down, began to weep; but Kamal did not inquire into the cause of her grief, so Kunda remained silent. Presently, Kamal Mani, saying "I am busy," went away. Kunda Nandini perceived that all joy is fleeting. Nagendra's letter to Hara Deb Ghosal: "You wrote that of all the acts I have done in my life, my marriage with Kunda Nandini is the most erroneous. I admit it.
However, the native knows well that one species of coral, the ahifa, is corrosive, irritating the skin when touched, and another, which is poisoned by the hara plants, is termed to'a harahia. Coral makes good lime for whitening walls, and is cut into blocks for building. Many churches in Tahiti were built of coral blocks.
