Goddesses and Divine Energy

 

India's divine pantheon is among the most ancient in

the world, yet its goddesses such as Saraswati,

Lakshmi, Durga and Kali are hugely important in

contemporary thinking and practice. Four scholars

explore the origins and current significance of

goddesses in India today.

 

 

They are Tamara Ditrich of the University of

Queensland; Gauri Krishnan of the Asian Civilizations

Museum in Singapore; Mahdu Kanna of the Indira Ghandi

National Centre for the Arts in New Delhi and Chaya

Chandrasekhar of the Art Gallery of New South Wales in

Sydney.

 

 

 

This program ("The Spirit of Things") is also

broadcast on Radio Australia shortwave. Yes,

shortwave radio - the old-school 20th century leftover

from the pre-podcast days! Gotta love Radio Oz!
