Description
Summary:The historical Bengal is spread throughout the north-eastern part of the Indian subcontinent. From the perspective of religious studies, this region is a very interesting field of research. In the Bengal area we find the activity of the main religious traditions of South-East Asia, namely Hinduism, Buddhism and Islam. Their mutual interactions brought into existence many original and syn-cretic religious phenomena. They are characterised by archaic schemes of thinking and practices which are relatively stable; however, the symbolism and meanings correlated with them are invari-ant. Tantric practices – visualisations, mantras and Yogic control of the body – are elements of this very persistent system.
