Description:
This book provides a comprehensive study of women Rishikas (female seers) in Vedic literature, emphasizing their spiritual significance and contributions. It highlights the equal respect given to women seers alongside male Rishis and challenges later gender-based restrictions on Vedic study. The book identifies 27 women mantra-drashtarah (mantra seers) in the Rigveda, detailing their contributions, hymns, and philosophical insights. The work is essential for those interested in Indology, Vedic studies, and gender studies, offering a detailed analysis of the roles of prominent Rishikas like Vagambhrni, Surya-Savitri, Shraddha, Daksina, Aditi, Ratri, and Urvashi.
