The Lajjagauri and Anandanayaki

- A New Light on the Nature and Worship of the Adi-Mata, the Primordial Mother

Om The Lajjagauri and Anandanayaki

Lajjagauri is perhaps one of India''s oldest goddesses with images of her in South Asia dating back to the Indus Civilisation c. 3,000 to 1,500 BC. Her devotees can be traced back even earlier to the Ukraine c. 10,000 BCE. In India, new finds continue to expand the geographical spread of Lajjagauri''s devotees, most recently to Odisa. Ḍhere''s work on Lajjagauri is based on a tireless pursuit of her image throughout western India. In contrast to the other thousands of Indian goddesses whose images are super abundant, Lajjagauri has become more reclusive as other deities have risen. This work by the towering Marāṭhī cultural specialist Ramacandra Cintaman Dhere is a unique and important study, painstakingly and lovingly translated here by Dr Jayant Bapat.
