Drawing on rich historical detail, the study traces the dominance of the Dashnami Giri Sannyasis, the interplay of folk practice and Brahminical Saivism, and the profound impact of political protest and legal reform in the modern era.
This book explores the making of Tarakeswar as one of eastern India’s most influential pilgrimage centres. Focusing on the cult of Lord Taraknath, it reveals how a small shrine grew into a vibrant religious town shaped by monastic authority, popular devotion, and economic exchange.
