Produktbeschreibung

"Sacred Mountains of India" explores the profound religious and spiritual significance of India's mountains, revealing how these landscapes are deeply interwoven with Indian culture. More than just geographical features, these mountains from the Himalayas to the Western Ghats, serve as active sites for pilgrimage, meditation, and enduring spiritual practices across Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism. The book delves into the tangible and intangible heritage embodied within these peaks, showcasing how specific mountains like Mount Kailash, believed to be the abode of Lord Shiva, act as focal points for devotion and contemplation.

The book presents its information by first introducing foundational concepts of sacred geography and mountain worship, including the deities associated with particular peaks. It then uses case studies to explore the Himalayas, Western Ghats, and other significant mountain regions, examining the specific religious traditions, pilgrimage routes, and ecological challenges unique to each. The study draws from religious texts, historical accounts, ethnographic studies, and scientific research.

Ultimately, "Sacred Mountains of India" argues that these mountains are living embodiments of India's spiritual and cultural identity, offering vital lessons for environmental stewardship and sustainable living.
