About the Book
This volume explores the interconnectedness of nature, culture, and cosmology, focusing on the rich traditions of Kashmir Shaivism and its integration with modern scientific thought. Rooted in the deep philosophical foundations of Indian thought-currents, particularly the concept of rtam, it presents a holistic dialogue across multiple disciplines including art history, archaeology, anthropology, sociology, philosophy, and even astro-physics and micro-biology.
The book delves into Kashmir's Shaiva philosophy and art, shedding light on the synthesis of Shaivism with cosmological and scientific perspectives. It takes a comprehensive approach by examining the iconography, metaphysics, and historical perspectives of Kashmir Shaivism while also investigating the intertwined nature of Shiva-Shakta cults. Drawing from both primary sources and literary materials, this work offers new insights into the history and iconography of Shaiva religion.
