Hardcover with dustjacket, 245 x 297mm., 288pp., 300 illustrations, most of which in full colour. ISBN 9789061536932. Tejas , or creative energy, is an essential concept in Indian religion. The Sanskrit word denotes fire, one of the five classical elements, but is also invested with a number of other meanings such as splendour, brilliance, vigour, light, intensity of the gaze, vital force, dignity, magical power or spiritual or moral influence, majesty, glory, authority. Authors Kapila Vatsyayan and Jan Van Alphen investigate the numerous aspects of cosmic energy in India. Tejas permeates every Indian discipline: mythology, philosophy, music, literature and the plastic arts. It feeds the great myths and the cycles of creation.
