the body as a microcosm
This new body of work begins with the study of different conceptions of the body found in tantric and haṭhayoga traditions.
I will be working closely with Sanskrit primary texts from the 9th to the 13th century, tracing how different traditions imagine the body in relation to the cosmos.
The tantric body is understood as a microcosm of the cosmos, i.e. everything that is in the universe is inside the body.
I’m curious to see how these ideas shift once they move through the material. 🌪️
