Guy Beck argues, however, that the focus of Western scholars on Hinduism's visual component has often been at the expense of the religion's most important feature - its emphasis on sound. Beck addresses this longstanding imbalance in the path breaking study. He contends that sound possess a central place in Hindu theory and practice and that Hinduism is essentially a sonic theology.\r\\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-section a-spacing-small a-padding-small\"\u003eGuy L.
