About the book:

The Father Mind created, in its image, the celestial human (Admawa'), and placed them in Paradise, containing both masculinity and femininity.

(Admawa') spent their days alone in a vast paradise, looking deep within, with longing, at their feminine image. And their depths looked, with longing, at their masculine image, but the two never met.

When (Admawa') entered the orbit of the world of creation, they saw the planets and walked with them. Then they saw Nature, which fell in love with them. They glimpsed their image in its water and wished to dwell within it, so it ascended to them with its spindle. The temples were luminous in its body, and they slept there.

They saw (Anima) in their rib and bowed to her. She broke the shackles of their prisons, and they knew the freedom of their mouth and hands. She then closed the book of pain and journeyed with them to the wells of time, leaving her deserted palace behind, and slept in their arms.

She saw (Animus) in her marrow, so she unwrapped the swaddling of his magic, heard the neighing of his horse, tasted him and he tasted her, and the flavors mixed between them. There, in the depths, they played their Bolero melody.

He is her body, and she is his soul. (Admawa') was fertilized and sat on a tulip, bending their knees and extending their arms over them with elegant, inspired fingers, their tips touching and glowing. They placed themselves in the eye of their tablet, and their heart was revealed anew. They dragged their path towards the night like a stray fish, soaked in smoke, and saw nothing of the drums of fire but their fingers and hers.

In the final serpentine seduction, the beloved of the dove was immersed in her eternal fragrance, listening to the crowing of roosters within her and him. They climbed the sound of the flute, and she heard the gurgles of the girl within her. And before turning into her forever, they stood there, before her rain, at the window.
