The Making of Tāntric Rādhā: A Reading from the Śrī-Krṣṇayāmala -- Prema and Śakti: VaiṣṇavaSahajiyā Appropriations of GauḍīyaVaiṣṇavism and Śāktism in the Ānandabhairava of Prema-dāsa -- Tantra from Below: Inclusivity, Secrecy and Non-Conceptual Yogas in the Bāul-Sahajiyā Traditions -- Weaving the Body and the Cosmos: Yantric Homologies at a Goddess Temple in Northeastern India -- The Metamorphosis of the "Gāchh Tar Vālī " and the Making of a Śakti-Pīṭha in Mithila -- Power and Desire in the worship of the Goddess Kāmākhyā -- Gynocentric Cosmogony in the DevībhāgavataPurāṇa -- The Monistic Śākta Philosophy in the Guhyopaniṣad.

This book explores the tantric concept of Shakti, or the principal female cosmic entity and her pilgrimage sites. It offers a first-hand view of the multidimensional ways in which Shakti asserted its supremacy over existing Vaishnava and orthodox Brahmanical traditions in post mediaeval Bengal and India. The interdisciplinary chapters pave the way to understanding the intra-textual relationships between philosophical and conceptual ideas in literary texts and their oral transmission. Divided into three thematic sections: Cult Inclusiveness, Śakti Pithas, and the Śākta Philosophy, the book invites readers to explore a contested area of scholarship from unique perspectives, offering rich insights into the nature of negotiations between diverse religious streams. It also urges readers to examine the many innovative approaches and theoretical models on the goddess culture of East India. The book is of interest to students and scholars of religious textual studies, anthropology, pilgrimage studies, comparative religion, Sanskrit and Bengali languages, regional studies, South Asian cultures, goddess traditions and cultural history of mediaeval Bengal.
