Climate Change and the Art of Devotion
This is an excellent book that is well worth reading. Sugata Ray is a very good writer, and Climate Change and the Art of Devotion was impressively researched. This book adds to our understanding of both the fascinating religious and artistic world of Braj Vaishnavism as well as the emerging field of eco art history.

Thirteen Theories of Human Nature
Drawing out the iconic in the aniconic
Natural entities such as rivers, trees, and mountains have long been worshiped in Hindu India as embodied forms of divinity. This essay examines the devotional tendency to anthropomorphize such aniconic objects as a way of bringing out their personality – in other words, to draw the iconic out of the aniconic.

Neem trees have long been associated with the goddess Shitala in Hindu religious culture. This essay examines the worship of indivi…

A cross-cultural adventure
It was very rare for a Westerner to cross over into traditional Hindu culture during the British period of Indian history. One figure to do so, however, was Ronald Nixon, who later came to be known by the name Krishnaprem and was recognized as a Hindu saint by many Indians of his day. This paper explores the life and thought of Krishnaprem by examining both his own published works and private sources. It investigates the way in which he negotiate…
