| 520 | |a This work examines a medieval Sanskrit text, the Netra Tantra, which is devoted to health and healing through a yogic practice dedicated to the chanting of mantras, the building of mandalas, and meditation. It discusses the nature and efficacy of these practices and explores non-medical routes to the alleviation of pain, illness, and even death. A focal point of the study is the iconography of the deity Amrtesa (non-death), also known as Mrtyujit or Mrtyuj̨aya (Conqueror of Death), a deity who continues to be popular today among those seeking to ease physical suffering. | ||
