It explores ways in which people live in and understand their worlds. In the book, Anne Feldhaus examines a variety of religious ideas, images, and rituals that give people a sense of the coherence and meaning of a particular region. She demonstrates how a multitude of intersecting, overlapping, yet in some ways disconnected regions can co-exist in one part of India. The book focuses on Maharashtra, the Marathi-speaking region of western India that is home to 125 million people. Using rich examples from this state, Feldhaus explores how people in Maharashtra orient themselves to the world, how they connect places to one another, and how they understand themselves in relation to the regions they inhabit.   aBiography; Consciousness; Gender; Individual; State; traditions   cENGLISH  c545536d545536  00104070aACLbACLc3Bd2024-08-25g1795.00l0o307.0954 FELp672530r2024-08-25 14:00:26w2024-08-25yREF  00104070aACLbACLc3Bd2024-04-02g1795.00l0o307.0954 ANN;1p672531r2024-08-25 14:00:26t1w2024-04-02yREF
