Thanks Dr Karp.

This is another and early painting of Chinnamasta on a lion, but the present ownership and copyright was a challenge for the book cover.

I do not know much about these things, but received a comment from a friend in India that "the Chinnamasta Devi does not have a lion for her vehicle.”

May I know the source of the picture on the cover, so I can write to him and clear his doubt? (He is not a member of this group.)

Thanks,

Rajam
