Abstract

The article When One Hanumān is Not Another Hanumān: The Case of Salasar Balaji by R. Jeremy Saul provides an ethnographic study of Hanumān worship at Salasar Balaji temple in Rajasthan. It explores how a distinct theological and emotional identity has developed around this mūrti, blending fierce and healing aspects. The article interrogates how images of the divine evolve uniquely in particular locales and among specific communities.
