In India, divinity assumes many forms. Of these myriad identities, the portrayal of the Goddess in sacred literature is perhaps the most alluring and all-encompassing. "Beauty, Power & Grace presents, for the first time, a comprehensive collection of breathtaking Goddess imagery—from rarely seen village deities to well recognized icons—including many illustrations commissioned exclusively for its pages. Krishna Dharma retells the intriguing stories surrounding such personalities as Kali, Parvati, Lakshmi and Saraswati, while providing insight into the abounding symbolism of each.
The Many Faces of the Goddess.
Dharma is a Vaisnava priest and scholar of the ancient Sanskrit writings of India.
