These \"statue-like\" forms of divinity allow easy access to the Lord, who, in general, is beyond the purview of the senses. At first, the deities can be provocative, particularly for a Westerner. How is the visible form in the temple an alternate manifestation of God, with no qualifying caveat? Is deity worship different than idol worship? Just what does deity wor ship mean? In what sense can this visible form be God? Why would rational people worship a material object as if it were divine? These are some of the questions we will address in this short book.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jai Krishna Ponnappan, Kiran Atma\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/11\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 50\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.13lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798390983584\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Independently Published","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":41169073242227,"sku":"9.79839E+12","price":16.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_4df20b48-a245-4c5c-b041-98c145d77966.jpg?v=1703081135","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/hindu-worship-temples-rituals-idols-sacred-objects-deities-and-faith-9798390983584","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
