  • Done by @Nvvchar

Contents

[edit]
  • Brahman should be linked in the earlier section, not here.
  • Agreed. Done. All later duplinks removed.
  • Is not the definition of Brahman getting repeated here?
  • Yes. Removed repetition. The sources have been checked and moved to the sections above.
  • In the 2nd line, italics have not been used properly.
  • Corrected.
  • Identify Griffith, McDaniel
  • Added, with source/wikilink.
  • "Begat" is an archaic word. Use modern spellings
  • Yes. Rephrased after checking source.
  • All knowing knowledge What does this mean?
  • Probably a drafting error. Changed to "All knowledge...".

Influence in Tantra

[edit]
  • Simply say McDaniel.
  • Done by @Nvvchar
  • Duplinks: mantra, shakti, Saraswati
  • Done by @Nvvchar

List of duplinks:

  • Who is the Goddess? - Purusha, Prakrti
  • The sources assert she is both. Duplinks removed.
  • Devi stuti and iconography - Vedas,Rudras,Adityas,Soma,Prajapati, Indra
  • Removed.

@Sainsf: I also removed all cites from the lead, something that required moving some text and all sources to the main article. So you will see two new sections Etymology and History. @Nvvchar: Please double check my edits and if I missed anything or duplinks, please fix.
