Description

Description from Internet Archive (opens in a new tab)

Indo-Aryan Deities and Worship is a pioneering study of Hindu gods and goddesses as depicted in the Vedas, Upanishads, and Puranas. Moor includes illustrations and comparative analysis linking Vedic religion to Zoroastrianism, Buddhism, and even early Christian iconography, suggesting shared Indo-European roots in divine symbolism. This volume is a classic reference for scholars of comparative religion, mythology, and the spiritual heritage of South Asia.
