Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
Most people have heard about the Bhagavad Gita, and may have read it once upon a time. But what about the Devi Gita? In The Song of the Goddess, C. Mackenzie Brown offers an unencumbered translation of the Hindu devotional text the Devi Gita, which dates to somewhere between the 13th and 16th centuries. In an accessible and short introduction, Brown explains that the Devi Gita posits the supremacy of a great goddess, who is called the World Mother. Mackenzie offers a useful synopsis of the Devi, which incorporates elements of the earlier Bhagavad Gita but also moves beyond it to embrace Tantra and various yogic disciplines.
