Tantra: enlightenment to revolution explores the radical philosophy
that transformed the religious, cultural and political landscape of
India and beyond. Originating in early medieval India, Tantra has
been linked to successive waves of revolutionary thought - from its
6th-century transformation of Hinduism and Buddhism to the Indian
fight for independence and the global rise of 1960s counterculture.
Centring on the power of divine feminine energy, Tantra inspired
the dramatic rise of goddess worship in medieval India and has gone
on to influence contemporary feminist thought and artistic
practice. Presenting masterpieces of sculpture, painting, prints
and ritual objects from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Tibet,
Japan, the UK and the USA, this publication offers new insights
into a philosophy that has captured our imagination for more than a
millennium.
