Table of ContentsAcknowledgments Personal Prelude Introduction Chapter One: The Case of the Missing Interlocutors: Methodological Issues in Hindu–Christian Studies Chapter Two: One, None, Many: A Śākta Ontology Chapter Three: A Śākta Thealogy of Religious Diversity Chapter Four: Upside-Down, Inside-Out: A Śākta Method for Comparative Theology Conclusion Bibliography About the AuthorReviewsRodrigues takes a full-bodied approach to theology of religions and comparative theology. She pinpoints the postcolonial, intergenerational trauma that is often missed in conversations about the relative absence of Hindu interlocutors. Offering her own voice to these disciplines, she roots a Śakta thealogy of religions in the divine as one, none, and many; and she concludes with promising notes toward a holistic method for comparative theology. -- Michelle Voss, Toronto School of Theology A Sakta Method for Comparative Theology is a welcome addition to the maturing field of comparative theology. The Sakta tradition of the Goddess, most often neglected by theologians, points us to a more sensual and sensitive interreligious learning that corresponds to the realities of lived religion. Pravina Rodrigues is to be congratulated for this pioneering study, a book that is both scholarly and personal. -- Francis X. Clooney, SJ, Harvard Divinity School Author InformationPravina Rodrigues is adjunct faculty at the Starr King School for the Ministry, and is postdoctoral fellow at the Jesuit School of Theology of Santa Clara University.
