[INDOLOGY] Śaktipiṭhas

[Nagaraj Paturi]

My father wrote and published a book in Telugu called  " Shakti Pitha Tatva
Vivechanamu "

It discusses various kinds of groupings of Shakti Pithas other than the
most known group of 18 also along with that known 18 grouping and the idea
behind each of these groupings.

It has a literature review with a bibliographical survey.

One Mr Adheer Som who wrote an English book on Sri Chakra was in
correspondence with me and was telling how he discussed the
Shkti Piothas and their geography under the guidance of his guru.
