Tantric Yoginis and Devis
exploring the beauty of the divine
Yoga originates from the word “yuj”, meaning
to unite or bind. A yogini is a female practitioner of yoga for the attainment
of oneness with cosmic energy. The ancient yoga tradition of Tantra identifies
Tantric Yoginis as forms of the goddess Kali, each one associated with a
particular yogic technique (kriya), sacred sound (mantra) and mystic symbol
(mudra). Indian temples such as those in Khajuraho and Belur, built as early
as 900 AD, are devoted to her form as divine guardian, temple dancer, goddess
(devi) and celestial consort. As portrayed on our journals, sculptures from
these temples are both graceful and seductive, chiseled to display the traditional
art of Indian dance.
