About The Book: The village gods of South India are central to the region's religious life, deeply ingrained in local culture and traditions. These deities, often manifestations of nature or ancestors, are worshipped in small temples or shrines, and their rituals are closely tied to the agrarian lifestyle. Local communities offer prayers, food, and other rituals for blessings related to fertility, prosperity, and protection. Devotees believe these gods directly influence daily life, embodying the spirit of the land and offering a sense of security. The devotion to these gods fosters a strong communal bond and reflects the region's folk religious practices.
