| 520 | |a In India, Hindu images have been cast for millennia through the lost wax process and brought to life by priests, becoming not merely venerated icons but actual embodiments of gods.

The author traces the origins of this important shift, and examines Western attitudes regarding sacred objects, as well as the complex layering of traditional and modern Hindu attitudes in a globalized world. | ||
