Hindu Images and their Worship with special reference to Vaisnavism: A philosophical-theological inquiry

By Julius J. Lipner

This book focuses on Hindu images and their worship with special reference to Vaiṣṇavism. Concentrating largely on Sanskritic source material, the author shows that Hindu image-worship may be understood via three levels of interpretation: the metaphysical/theological, the narratival or mythic, and the performative or ritual.
