Excerpt from In the Ice World of Him laya: Among the Peaks and Passes of Ladakh, Nubra, Suru, and Baltistan Lord of the Hills, instinct with Deity. He, who has wandered under the shadow of the banyan, papal and tamarind of India, the palms of Ceylon, the weird creepy trees of Siam, and the kingly wowingen of Java, and has lingered by their stone duplicates and the naga forms, deftly cut upon the walls of the temples, can understand something of the motives of the bygone adherents of the Tree and Serpent worship, which led them to adopt these emblems of protection and power as objects of their adoration; emblems, which, after the disappearance of the original cult, intertwined themselves so persistently with both the Brahmanic and Buddhist traditions. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work. Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy.
