Amrapali
c. 500 BCE
  In Buddha's time there was one very beautiful
woman; she was a prostitute, her name was
Amrapali. I remembered her at this moment because
she never used any make-up. Ordinarily prostitutes
use more make-up than anybody else; in fact,
prostitutes always use make-up, and the older they
become, the thicker becomes the make-up.

Amrapali was so beautiful. To indicate that – that she
was so beautiful – the scriptures say that she never
used any make-up. There was always a queue in
front of her palace, of kings, princes, the super rich.
It was very difficult to get permission to enter her
palace. She was a singer, a musician, a dancer...
