Book excerpt: Ucchu ma has a rich iconography in East Asia as the Fiery-head-vajra whose scrolls have been found at Tun-huang.The role of Agni or fire goes as far back as the Rgveda.Fire mythology can be seen in the exploits of Prometheus who brought fire from the gods and became a mythical benefactor.The Psycho- analysis of Fire by Gaston Bachelard is an entrancing modern approach:ithat which burns germinatesi (p.41). The several categorisations of u as,along with the texts from which they originate,are epiphanies of supreme knowledge seen in regal concepts,like sitatapatra ewhite parasol?,vijaya evictory?,abhyudgata eexalted highnessi. U arajas figure at the head of Vidyarajas (p.3744).U avijaya is the Goddess of Supreme Victory.She was invoked during the period of Shotoku Taishi when the Japanese State was emerging as a powerful unitary force.The oldest Sanskrit manuscript of the U avijaya-dhara comes from the Horyuji monastery (AD 609). The iconography of Vairocana shows 37 types with different attributes, running into 58 pages.The classification of Vairocana has been done for the first time and it invites a fresh consideration of the interface of texts and their graphic representations to comprehend the complex system of maalas.This volume has an extensive coverage of Vairocana.
