Gavin Flood a prominent scholar of Hinduism with specialization in With research interests that span South Asian traditions, [cite web Prof.Flood remarked: "I have always had a general interest in Hinduism,even as a boy when I remember reading an article in the Encyclopedia Britannica that was utterly compelling and utterly incomprehensible for me at the time!" Hindu studies, he says, should be devoted to "the deepening of knowledge about Hindu traditions, the development of reflection on the arts and literature (particularly in the vernacular) of Indian culture, and the development of Hindu theological reasoning from within those traditions,in ways that meet modern criteria of rigour.cite journal Publications * The Tantric Body: The Secret Tradition of Hindu Religion."
