Summary, etc. |
This essay examines the complex religious heritage of the Pattan valley and the larger region of Lahaul in Himachal Pradesh through a close study of a particular temple. The nondescript building of Mirkula Devi encloses an astonishing interior consisting of wooden carved panels with an eclectic mix of Shakta, Shaivite, Vaishnavite and Buddhist iconography. The temple is sacred to Hindus and Buddhists alike.By focusing on ritual ceremonies in and around the site, the author highlights the temple's historical links with Kashmir and Chamba, and its interactions with other deities of the region and the processions undertaken by them. The ongoing system of incorporation reflects syncretism in a uniquely local vernacular culture. |
