Collected Poems (Centenary Edition, 1972), p. 571.
Q: Your "The Bird of Fire" is full of colour and images, but if one can follow the bhāva behind or through them, I believe the appreciation becomes complete.
A: What do you mean by following the bhāva behind? Putting a label on the bird and keeping it dried up in your intellectual museum, for Professors to describe—to their pupils—"this is the species and that's how it is constituted, these are the bones, feathers etc., etc., and now you know all about the bird. Or would you like me to dissect it farther?"
