Description:
This book explores the lesser-known Tantric aspects of Ganesha, a deity widely worshiped in Hinduism, through a study of original Sanskrit texts. The focus is on Ganesha's forms as described in the Vidyarnavatantra, a major compilation on mantrashastra attributed to Vidyaranya Yati, compiled around the seventeenth century. The text offers detailed descriptions of fourteen different forms of Ganesha, covering their iconographic characteristics, associated mantras, yantras, and the ritual application of these mantras. With a focus on the Tantric approach to Ganesha worship, this work contributes significantly to the understanding of his role in this lesser-explored aspect of his worship.
