Description
Description
The artists creating images of Lajja Gauri drew on various ancient symbols
of fortune, fertility, and life-force to communicate her power through
their rich heritage of meanings. Because there are no texts to explain the
figure, the study proceeds from the basis of the objects to derive their
meaning. Carol Bolon charts the changes in the goddess's form over a period
of more than four centuries, including its possible adoption from tribal
worship into Hindu temples, and brings a new appreciation of Lajja Gauri's
rich symbolic meaning and cultural context.
