Mandala of Nepala Mandala By Milan Ratnma Shakya

This book is the effort of a decade long journey of my teaching and writing of Nepalese history, religion, culture, and art after earning a Ph.D. on "The Concept, Art-form and Aestheticism of Ganesa in Malla Period (c.1200 —1769)" in 2005 from Tribhuvan University. It further inspired me to publish Ganesh in Medieval Nepal (Rupa & Co., 2006), The Cult of Bhairva in Nepal (Rupa & Co., 2008), Ancient Stone Images of Buddha & Bodhisattva in Nepal (CNAS, Tribhuvan University, 2011), The Culture & Aesthetics of Durga in Nepalamandala (Adarsh Books, 2012), and Namo Buddhaya: A Buddhist Study (Buddhabhava, 2013).
