This blog is about commonly associate her with death, of Nepal and a left bank tributary of the my journey up the Kali Gandaki from sexuality, violence, and, paradoxically in sacred Ganges in India. In Nepal the river where we began our survey of Himalayan some later traditions, with motherly love. is notable for its deep gorge through the Vultures and other raptors of the region. My last visit to Nepal was in February 2004 when The Peregrine Fund organized a Kathmandu Summit Meeting. The goal of that meeting was to disseminate results of our discovery of veterinary diclofenac as the primary cause of the catastrophic collapse of Gyps vultures in South Asia. Last month, I returned to Nepal after nine years and could not help but feel a tremendous surge of nostalgia when our plane touched down at Kathmandu’s Tribhuvan International Airport. I was overwhelmed by emotion as I had very fond memories of this wonderful Himalayan country.

  • Shakta and Shakti by Usha Chatterji
    Shakta and Shakti By Usha Chatterji Source: Studies in Comparative Religion, Vol. 2, No.4. (Autumn 1968) © World Wisdom, Inc. www.studiesincomparativereligion.com THE cult of the Mother Goddess is as old as humanity. It is believed that in antiquity the cult extended to all the countries and thrived in all the civilizations from the Nile and Euphrates to the Aegean Sea; "Looking to the east of the Euphrates we see the Dusk Divinity of India, the Adya-Shakti and Maha-Shakti, or Supreme Power of many names as Gagadamba, Mother of the World, which is the Play of Her who is named Lalita," (Sir John Woodroffe). In India, the Great Mother has been worshipped from the Himalayan mountains in the north to Cape Comorin in the extreme south; the word Cape Comorin is a corrupted form of Kanya Kumari or Kumari Devi, the Virgin Daughter, as the goddess is often called. The Vedas speak much of the goddesses. Their images are radiant with beauty, power and intelligence. From the Vedas themselves the Shakta Tantras, cult-books of the Goddess, derive their inspiration. In the Rig-Veda the goddess Sarasvati receives much homage: "Pure, Sarasvati, with all her bounties, rich in thoughts, inspires us towards truth, causes in us the required virtues, Sarasvati by her divinity awakens in us consciousness, illumines us in our thoughts." She is intelligence, science, arts, and all knowledge. The word shakti comes from the root "shak," "to be able, to have power". Any thing, any activity, has power; if the power be not visible, it is latent.

  • El Benarés Tántrico De Bettina Bäumer: La Estética Del Deseo
    EL BENARÉS TÁNTRICO DE BETTINA BÄUMER: LA ESTÉTICA DEL DESEO Por María Rosa Fernández Gómez 1 Universidad de Málaga Esta presentación pretende continuar y profundizar en algunos aspectos de otras comunicaciones relativas a mujeres que en el siglo XX y, en el caso de la que yo he elegido, hasta nuestros días, han contribuido decisivamente a la conformación de lo que hoy entendemos por teoría y la historia del arte indio. Intentaré seguir, pues, la estela dejada por Alice Boner, Stella Kramrisch, Kapila Vatsyayan, desarrollando mi intervención acerca de los trabajos e intereses de Bettina Bäumer, gran especialista en la estética india y el pensamiento tántrico del shivaísmo de Cachemira. En su dilatada trayectoria académica, Bäumer ha colaborado con Kapila Vatsyayan a través del Indira Gandhi National Center for the Arts en publicaciones sobre arte indio, pero especialmente con Alice Boner, de quien fue su más estrecha colaboradora durante los años setenta y ochenta, mientras vivían ambas en la ciudad de Benarés. En mi estancia en Benarés a finales de los años noventa, tuve la suerte de coincidir con ella y asistir a algunas sesiones de trabajo junto al pandit especialista en shivaísmo tántrico de Cachemira, H.N. Chakravarty. En concreto, a través de mi presentación, me gustaría profundizar en algunos aspectos relativos a las temáticas de sus investigaciones y más concretamente tratar de señalar posibles interconexiones entre el tantrismo, la teoría del arte y la estética india. La ciudad de Benarés me servirá en cierto modo como marco simbólico y metafórico de dicha conexión tántrico-estética, por su importancia capital como foco de difusión del shivaísmo tántrico y por ilustrar desde su geografía sagrada los valores espirituales del agua, tema de este encuentro, en el hinduismo.
