Excellent- More about Kali in Bengali Lives: Narratives of Religious Experience
In Kali in Bengali Lives, Suchitra Samanta explores Bengalis' personal narratives of Kali devotion in the Bhakti tradition, revealing how the devotees' interpretive framework provides continuity and emotional power through intuitive insight into a larger truth.
Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 160 pages
Publication date: 15 March 2023
Publisher: Lexington Books
In her book "In Kali in Bengali Lives," Suchitra Samanta delves into the profound and personal narratives of Kali devotion within the Bhakti tradition of Bengal. These narratives, brimming with miraculous encounters, shed light on broader conceptions of divine power. While the revelatory experience has long held a place of validation in Indian epistemology, the devotees' own interpretive frameworks offer a sense of continuity within the realm of devotion and the miraculous experience as an intuitive insight (anubhuti) into a greater truth. Through these singular insights, the miraculous experience transcends mere emotional impact, becoming etched in the memory and prompting deep reflection. The narratives intricately explore how the meaning of the religious figure Kali becomes deeply personal and ultimately transformative for the devotees themselves.
