About this book

Darsan, Seeing the Divine Image in India by Diana L. Eck. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780890120422.

The entire guide concerns darsan, a Sandkrit word that means seeing, especially seeing the divine in an image, in a person or in a set of ideas. This guide concentrates on the first two of these meanings: the divine in sculpture, temples, symbols, times, and places, and the divine in great spiritual figures throughout the history of the Hindu religious tradition. This edition adds many more striking photographs to the earlier editions.
