Tantric Art of Orissa

Good Booksa href="../books/Tradition" Title="Tradition">Tradition in our Country is quite rich, with an eventful history. Still, there has been a dearth of good Books on this subject in English. This study-with focus on Orissa-is a significant step in this direction. The original literature, on this subject-in Sanskrit and other Classical languages-is very vast and one has to probe for various authentic references. Here is a treasure in nutshell. This Research based work fills a big vacuum, in order to quench the thirst of scholars and professionals, engaged in the discipline.
