"Introducing the Bhāgavata Purāṇa's key themes while also examining its extensive influence on Hindu thought and practice, this collection conducts ... [a] multidimensional reading of the entire text. Each essay focuses on a key theme of the Bhāgavata Purāṇa and its subsequent presence in Hindu theology, performing arts, ritual recitation, and commentary. The authors consider the relationship between the sacred text and the divine image, the text's metaphysical and cosmological underpinnings, its shaping of Indian culture, and its ongoing relevance to contemporary Indian concerns"--Cover, page [4].
