Hidden Women: Dara’s Tree And Cosmic And Eternal Love
The slogan “behind every great man, there’s a greater woman” was perpetuated throughout the feminist movement of the 60’s and 70’s. The stories of Radha and Dara, set out in Hidden Women: Dara’s Tree and Cosmic and Eternal Love perpetuates this notion that great men of traditional Hindu and Buddhist stories owe their strength, success, and religious enlightenment to great women, who were the unquestionable embodiments of virtues such as devotion, sacrifice, patience, emotional endurance, and faith.
