Description:
"This study is an attempt to write the history of women in relation to spirituality and spiritual movements. The Deccan and the region south of the Vindhyas form its geographical limits. It cuts across time and space to look at the issue of gender inequalities in south Indian societies and at spirituality as a powerful form of women's self-expression."--p.[xi].
