Early Tantric Medicine: Snakebite, Mantras, and Healing in the Garuda Tantras
Slouber, Michael (Assistant Professor of South Asia, Assistant Professor of South Asia, Western Washington University)
Early Tantric Medicine explores the mantra-based systems for healing snakebite found in the ancient Hindu texts called the Garuda Tantras. It engages with broader questions of medical efficacy, and describes a worldview in which powerful gods and goddesses are available to anyone who learns the secret methods of propitiating them.
