Yogini Vrishanana . Yoginis are female divinities -- blending the divine and the demonic and are worshipped not individually but in a totality of 64 or 81. They are seen as goddesses who can impart magical powers in worshippers. The Yogini cult started between the 6th and 10th centuries and is rooted in sacred texts; Vrishanana Yogini sits on an unornamented stone slab in 'lalitasana', holding a club in the left hand and a 'bilva' fruit in the right. Her 'vahana' (ride) is a swan that's pecking the bilva. The Yogini has a chiselled body with full breasts, slim waist and rounded abdomen. Her eyes are half-closed in contemplation and the buffalo face is serene and meditative. She wears a necklace, anklets, bangles and a girdle on the waist signaling a tribal link. 2013 A 1,100-year-old stone sculpture stolen many years ago from Lokhari, a remote village in Uttar Pradesh, and shipped to Paris has returned to India.
