Nanette R. Spina situates her study within the transnational Melmaruvathur Adhiparasakthi movement established by the Tamil Indian guru, Bangaru Adigalar. One of the most prominent, defining elements of this tradition is that women are privileged with positions of leadership and ritual authority. This represents an extraordinary shift from orthodox tradition in which religious authority has been the exclusive domain of male Brahmin priests. Presenting historical and contemporary perspectives on the transnational Adhiparasakthi organization, Spina analyzes women’s roles and means of expression within the tradition. The book takes a close look at the Adhiparasakthi society in Toronto, Canada (a Hindu community in both its transnational and diasporic dimensions), and how this Canadian temple has both shaped and demonstrated their own diasporic Hindu identity. The Toronto Adhiparasakthi society illustrates how Goddess theology, women's ritual authority, and “inclusivity” ethics have dynamically shaped the identity of this prominent movement overseas. Based on years of ethnographic fieldwork, the volume draws the reader into the rich textures of culture, community, and ritual life with the Goddess. .Religion and sociologySexFeminismFeminist theoryEthnologyAsiaCultureHinduismSociology of ReligionGender StudiesFeminism and Feminist TheoryAsian CultureHinduismReligion and sociology.Sex.Feminism.Feminist theory.EthnologyCulture.Hinduism.Sociology of Religion.Gender Studies.Feminism and Feminist Theory.Asian Culture.Hinduism.201.7081Spina Nanette Rauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut969228BOOK9910255217203321Women’s Authority and Leadership in a Hindu Goddess Tradition2202197UNINA
