Autorenporträt
Dr. Adyasha Das is the Amazon India bestselling author of "The Chausathi Yoginis of Hirapur: from Tantra to Tourism", "The Yoginis of Ranipur Jharial: Tantric Goddesses of Yore","Beyond the Horizon: a travel memoir" and "The Journey Starts Here: Global Management and Tourism Trends". She is a contemporary writer from Odisha known for her insightful and colourful portrayals of life. Suffused with sensitivity, she uses words and imagery with an uninhibited freedom, modulated with quality. Her creations have a rare psychological insight and are at the same time reflective and elegant in their observations. She is the author of poetry collections Anuchharita (Odia), Nemesis, Brass Flowers & The Yogini Poems: Love and Life (English), apart from academic and non-fiction books. "Forgotten Goddesses" is a celebration of the goddess worship tradition. Highlighting Goddess worship around the world, it is a compilation of ancient Goddesses and their interesting tales, forgotten over time. The goddesses listed in the book are protectors, demons, creators of miracles, and have the power of Tantric healing.
