Anyone who reads a Tantric text or enters a Tantric temple immediately encounters a pantheon offemale Buddhas and a host of female enlighteners known as "dakinis," who dance and leap injoyous poses that communicate a sense of mastery and spiritual power. This striking femaleimagery is fully compatible with Shaw's findings. Drawing on interviews and archival researchconducted during two years of fieldwork in India and Nepal, including more than forty previouslyunnoticed works by women of the Pala period (eighth through twelfth centuries C.E.), shesubstantially reinterprets the history of Tantric Buddhism during its first four centuries. In her view,the Tantric theory of this period promotes an ideal of cooperative, mutually liberative relationshipsbetween women and men while encouraging a sense of reliance on women as a source of spiritualinsight and power.
