Annually during the months of autumn, Bengal hosts three interlinked festivals to honor its most important goddesses: Durga, Kali, and Jagaddhatri. While each of these deities possesses a distinct iconography, myth, and character, they are all martial. Durga, Kali, and Jagaddhatri often demand blood sacrifice as part of their worship and offer material and spiritual benefits to their votaries. Richly represented in straw, clay, paint, and decoration, they are similarly displayed in elaborately festooned temples, thronged by thousands of admirers. The first book to recount the history of these festivals and their revelry, rivalry, and nostalgic power, this volume marks an unprecedented achievement in the mapping of a major public event. Rachel Fell McDermott describes the festivals' origins and growth under British rule. She identifies their iconographic conventions and carnivalesque qualities and their relationship to the fierce, Tantric sides of ritual practice. McDermott confronts controversies over the tradition of blood sacrifice and the status-seekers who compete for symbolic capital. Expanding her narrative, she takes readers beyond Bengal's borders to trace the transformation of the goddesses and their festivals across the world. McDermott's work underscores the role of holidays in cultural memory, specifically the Bengali evocation of an ideal, culturally rich past. Under the thrall of the goddess, the social, political, economic, and religious identity of Bengalis takes shape.

Working with Bengali mentors, especially his close friend A. B. Ghose, Sir John Woodroffe became the pseudonymous orientalist Arthur Avalon, famous for his tantric studies at the beginning of the twentieth century. Best known for The Serpent Power, the book which introduced 'Kundalini Yoga' to the western world, Avalon turned the image of Tantra around, from that of a despised magical and orgiastic cult into a refined philosophy which greatly enhanced the prestige of Hindu thought to later generations of westerners. This biographical study is in two parts. The first focuses on Woodroffe's social identity in Calcutta against the background of colonialism and nationalism - the context in which he 'was' Arthur Avalon. To a very unusual degree for someone with a high position under the empire, Woodroffe the British High Court Judge absorbed the world of the Bengali intellectuals of his time, among whom his popularity was widely attested. His admirers were attracted by his Indian nationalism, to which his tantric studies and supposed learning formed an important adjunct. Woodroffe's friend Ghose, however, was the chief source of the textual knowledge in which the 'orientalist' scholar appeared to be deeply versed. The second part of this study assesses Woodroffe's own relationship to Sanskrit and to the texts, and highlights his very extensive but gifted use of secondary sources and the knowledge of Ghose and other Indian people. It examines the apologetic themes by which he and his collaborators made Tantra first acceptable, then fashionable. Partly because of his mysterious pseudonym, Woodroffe acquired a near legendary status for a time, and remains a fascinating figure. This book is written in a style that should appeal to the general reader as well as to students of Indian religions and early twentieth century Indian history, while being relevant to the ongoing debate about 'orientalism'.

In the realm of spiritual luminaries, there exists a rare soul whose divine radiance transcends the mundane and touches the very core of our existence. Srila Bhakti Ballabh Tirtha Goswami Maharaj Ji, the past president of Sri Chaitanya Gaudiya Math, was such an ethereal being, a beacon of transcendental light whose impact extended far beyond the boundaries of the material world. To merely witness the presence of Srila Bhakti Ballabh Tirtha Goswami Maharaj Ji was to be bathed in the brilliance of an inner aura that seemed to emanate from a source beyond the sun itself. His countenance, adorned with peace and serenity, was a testament to the depth of his spiritual realization. In the gaze of his eyes, one could discern a tranquil depth that spoke volumes about the profound connection he maintained with the divine. As a guru, Srila Bhakti Ballabh Tirtha Goswami Maharaj Ji effortlessly radiated purity. His disciples, scattered across the globe, were bound by an indescribable love and affection for their spiritual master. It was a love that transcended the physical realm, forging a connection that resonated in the chambers of the heart and the expanses of the soul. In the mere presence of Srila Bhakti Ballabh Tirtha Goswami Maharaj Ji, one couldn't help but feel transported to the transcendental realm of Golok Vrindavan—a space where time dissolves into eternity, and the soul dances in the divine ecstasy of unconditional love. Through the pages of this book, I humbly attempt to capture a mere fraction, a mere 1%, of the ineffable essence that was Srila Bhakti Ballabh Tirtha Goswami Maharaj Ji. His devotion to Radha Krishna Chaitanya Mahaprabhu was not just an expression of religious fervour; it was a living, breathing testament to the embodiment of pure love. The narrative within these pages seeks to unveil the layers of his devotion, exploring the depths of his bhakti and the unwavering dedication he held for his Gurudev. It is a journey through the spiritual landscape that Srila Bhakti Ballabh Tirtha Goswami Maharaj Ji traversed, leaving an indelible mark on the hearts of those fortunate enough to be touched by his presence. May this humble endeavour serve as a token of gratitude and remembrance for a spiritual luminary whose light continues to guide us even in his physical absence. In the pages that follow, may the essence of Srila Bhakti Ballabh Tirtha Goswami Maharaj Ji's divine journey be felt, and may it inspire us to embark on our own quest for spiritual realization.
