Adyasha Das
Before temples were built, a primordial power moved wild and free-a force the ancient world revered as Shakti. In The Circle of Sixty-Four, Amazon bestselling author Dr. Adyasha Das charts a deeply evocative poetic pilgrimage to the roofless, 9th-century Yogini temple of Hirapur. Through two interconnected, hauntingly beautiful ballads, these verses breathe life into sixty-four fierce, independent stone deities who refused to be bound by patriarchal dogma. This collection transforms historical fragments into a vibrant, contemporary literary testament, inviting readers to step inside an open-to-sky sacred circle where past and present intertwine.
