Download or read book Hindu Gods in an American Landscape written by E. Allen Richardson and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2018-11-15 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In India, Hindu images have been cast for millennia through the lost wax process and brought to life by priests--becoming not merely venerated icons but actual embodiments of gods. Second and third generation Hindu Americans have increasingly adopted a more worldly perspective toward religious objects, viewing them as symbolic rather than actual presences of the deity. The author traces the origins of this important shift, and examines Western attitudes regarding sacred objects, as well as the complex layering of traditional and modern Hindu attitudes in a globalized world.
