In South Asia goddesses are conceptualized and worshipped in a fascinatingrange of forms – from cosmic beings to bacterial manifestations, from human-like appearances to creatures with animal and insect semblances. This book maps the diverse identities of goddesses through metaphors of Grace, Rage and Knowledge, and offers an in-depth insight into femininity, sexual politics, ritual worship, religion, ecology and gender. The volume explores how these deity attributes are expressed and embedded through anthropomorphic as well as inorganic forms of nature: beautiful women, multi-legged and many-armed animals, epistemic selves, demonic beings, glamorous personifications and also grotesque sub-humans.The second edition contains an Epilogue which further explores how the discourses on Goddesses are moulded by the myth and folklore. It opens discussions on how the dynamism of Goddess cultures have been appropriated into contemporary variations of those archetypes over time. This book will be useful to scholars and researchers of religious studies, cultural studies, folklore, art, literature, sociology and gender studies, especially those interested in Nepal and Hinduism.

Cracks In the Wind
Memoirs from Lumbini

Set in the village of Bahadurganj within Kapilvastu, Lumbini region of Nepal, this narrative unfolds through the eyes of Onu, the first-person narrator who recalls the tales of his past. Central to his memory is Rahmat, a philosophical neighbour who makes wind-spinners for the village children by day and serves as an undertaker by night. Rahmat’s profound outlook on life leads Onu to regard him as a mentor and he often shadows him on his expeditions across the village plains. Onu perceives the capacious land of Buddha as a realm of elemental profusion, defined by the winds blowing between the icy Himalayan peaks to the north and the great Ganga to the south.
