The Sword and the Flute - Kali and Krsna: Dark Visions of the Terrible and (Hermeneutics: Studies in the History of Religions)
"The Sword and the Fluteis a very personal document, as well as  a useful academic study. It deserves a careful reading by the professional  religionist and indologist, and it has much to offer the student and the  reflective reader in these fields."  --Journal of Asian Studies"The Sword and the Fluteis one of those rare books in the  phenomenology/history of religions which in saying something about the religion  of a non-Western culture also has potential relevance to how we 'modern men'  might conceptualize ultimate reality. . . . There are relatively few works which  succeed in vivifying 'alien' religious structures the way this one does."  --Journal of the American Religious Academy
