The present work spread over eight chapters deals with major Mahayana deities including some of the females concepts that were given forms in East Asia under Saktism in India and Tibet. These include individual deities as described in the Sadhanas, group deities known as Dharmapala i.e. " Protectors of the Buddhist law " and a few interesting Japanese godheads with elements of beauty and function, or as objects of prayer for prosperity, personal and social, with borrowed traits from the myths and legends in which they had originated.
