Mahavidays (she of great wisdom),
By
This review is from: Hindu Goddesses: Vision of the Divine Feminine in the Hindu Religious Tradition (Hardcover)
This book deals with Goddesses not normally discussed in other Hindu related or Goddess related subjects. The information on the Mahavidyas is well researched and correct. the only thing about David Kinsley is that for the most part according to him Kali is wild and destructive. But he does give very good information about her. Many who are into goddess religion and spirituality have no clue about the Mahavidyas. So if you are interested in the Hindu Goddesses you will be pleased with your purchase of this wonderful book. Also he includes some real nice illustrations of the Gooddesses. The Mahavidyas are independent Goddesses, if they are with a male God, the male divinity is eighter in a submissive or in a humiliating position. But usually the Mahavidyas are seen without the male deities. I have seen Kali without Shiva. I have this book and I love it.
