Tantra visions of the Divine Feminine deals with a group of ten Hindu tantric goddesses, the Mahavidyas, who embody habits, attributes, or identities, usually considered repulsive or socially subversive. It is within the context of tantric worship that devotees seek to identify themselves with these forbidding goddesses.\u003cbr\u003eThe Mahavidyas, who embody habits, attributes, or identities, usually considered repulsive or socially subversive. It is within the context of tantric worship that devotees seek to identify themselves with these forbidding goddesses. The Mahavidyas seem to function as \"awakeners\" - symbols that help to project one's consciousness beyond the socially acceptable or predictable.\u003cbr\u003eKinsley not only describes the eccentric qualities of each of these goddesses, but seeks to interpret the Mahavidyas as a group and to explain their importance for understanding Tantra and the Hindu tradition.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"MLBD","offers":[{"title":"Hardbound","offer_id":53359276556651,"sku":"9788120815223, 9788120815230","price":500.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":53359276589419,"sku":null,"price":400.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0991\/0445\/7067\/files\/tantric-visions-and-the-divine-feminine-122.jpg?v=1780947923","url":"https:\/\/www.mlbd.com\/products\/tantric-visions-of-the-divine-feminine-the-ten-mahavidyas-by-david-kinsleyauthor-mlbd-publications","provider":"MLBD","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
