A traditional family from the tiny town of Bihar faced difficulties in the marriage of their only male child. The marriage failed thrice for different reasons. A well-qualified IItian lad, despite being well settled in a public undertaking in Bombay as an engineer, failed in his social life. He became frustrated. So were his parents. He left his job after ten years of a brilliant career at ONGC and joined a yoga ashram in Rishikesh run by a yogini named Gargi of American origin. He remained there for six months. And a day came when he was proposed by Gargi. Marriage was solemnized in Haridwar in presence of both the families--- one from India and the other from America. And her visit to a tiny town of Khizersarai as a bride got accolades for her not as a yogini but as a yakshini as fortune returned to the family of Shwetabh, the Hero of the novel, winking at the unfortunate moments of the past.

For those who wonder what relation actual Tantric practices bear to the "Tantric sex" currently being marketed so successfully in the West, David Gordon White has a simple answer: there is none. Sweeping away centuries of misunderstandings and misrepresentations, White returns to original texts, images, and ritual practices to reconstruct the history of South Asian Tantra from the medieval period to the present day. Kiss of the Yogini focuses on what White identifies as the sole truly distinctive feature of South Asian Tantra: sexualized ritual practices, especially as expressed in the medieval Kaula rites. Such practices centered on the exchange of powerful, transformative sexual fluids between male practitioners and wild female bird and animal spirits known as Yoginis. It was only by "drinking" the sexual fluids of the Yoginis that men could enter the family of the supreme godhead and thereby obtain supernatural powers and transform themselves into gods. By focusing on sexual rituals, White resituates South Asian Tantra, in its precolonial form, at the center of religious, social, and political life, arguing that Tantra was the mainstream, and that in many ways it continues to influence contemporary Hinduism, even if reformist misunderstandings relegate it to a marginal position. Kiss of the Yogini contains White's own translations from over a dozen Tantras that have never before been translated into any European language. It will prove to be the definitive work for persons seeking to understand Tantra and the crucial role it has played in South Asian history, society, culture, and religion.

She chose the life of a warrior, leading from the front, protecting her ancestral kingdom. She waded through treacherous destiny. Her uncompromising love restored her husband back to glory. She lived in a hermitage, chose a king as husband, and challenged his dharma in open sabha- a mother who shaped an emperor who reshaped the civilization. She watched the play of beauty and destruction from afar. When she took centre stage, she nurtured the future to find its feet. She was regal and virtuous. She embarked on a divine mission, and chose an incredible destiny and groom for herself. She, a fisherwoman, rose to rule an empire, navigating challenges and making tough decisions with her steely resolve. She led her life on her own terms, choosing to stay on the sidelines but shaping life at the centre. She courageously pursued truth, unafraid to challenge the greatest scholars on metaphysics.

Her penance and devotion won her heaven, and for her husband too. She has many faces, different roles in different times, embodying the essence of a great tradition.

It has been my high privilege to have some practical experience as the earthly wife of an angel from the unseen world. In the interests of psychical research, I have tried to explore this pathway of communication with the spiritual universe, and, so far as lay in my power, to make a sort of rough guidebook of the route. For not all wives of heavenly bridegrooms travel the same path at first. There are roads running into this one from every religion and folklore under the sun, since the pathway of marital relations on the Borderland was once, and still is, as I hope to show, one of the main thoroughfares connecting our world with the world beyond the grave.
