dc.description.abstractI see the Salabhanjika as a link over space, time, and systems of thought; demonstrating this is the objective of my study. She links the Goddess and Tree religion of the West (Old Europe, the Mediterranean, the Near East) with the Indus Valley, and through the Indus Valley, all of India to Nepal. She links this larger ancient culture complex with the later traditions in these areas: Christian, Hindu, Buddhist, Jam, Islamic. She links the religious thought and symbolism of ancient and modern, Eastern and Western, through the recurring permutations of woman and tree and their companion symbols.
