About the Book
This second volume of the Suksmagama critical edition provides detailed descriptions of a wide range of rites and ceremonies performed in temples, involving both divinities and humans. Many of these rituals are festival-based, celebrated in honor of Siva and the Goddess, while others include the anointing of the Linga with a continuous flow of liquids and lesser-known ceremonies associated with the Goddess.
The volume also covers special rites performed exclusively for kings, various ordeals, and an intriguing chapter on the organization of temple personnel. By combining critical scholarship with meticulous documentation, this book offers valuable insights into temple practices, religious literature, and ritualistic culture, making it an essential resource for scholars, students, and readers interested in South Indian temple traditions.
