About this document
Saktism in Purusottama Kshetra by tingalmugan is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses the influence of Shaktism, or goddess worship, in Purusottama Kshetra (Puri). It notes that while Puri is recognized as a center of Vaishnavism, it was also historically an important center of Shaktism. Goddess Vimala is a prominent deity worshipped there as part of the Jagannath tradition. The placement of Subhadra, a form of Durga, between Jagannath and Balabhadra also reflects the syncretism of Vaishnavite and Shakta beliefs in the region.
