There are a few things I need to mention in the beginning to anyone who might fully appreciate reading this book.
- This is not a book to be attempted at one sitting
- Having been brought up in a Hindu household, there are multiple things that made sense to me instantly given my previous understanding ( to a degree) . I personally see this as stumbling block for someone reading something like this for the first time.
This book has been written very clearly and has elaborate explanations ( again for someone who is interested in what it has to offer) of the Mahavidhyas, their representations and any further information that goes with it. I must admit I did not completely read all of it ( refer to the first bullet point) but I will definitely be pursuing it at leisure again.
I got this book via Netgalley.
