Описание: Explores changes in perception of Hindu icons in the United States where second and third generation Hindu Americans have increasingly adopted American attitudes toward sacred objects. The text describes the traditional path in India where Hindu images have been cast for millennia through the lost wax process. It also explores the origins of western attitudes toward sacred objects as symbolic.
