| Publisher Description: A collection of material bearing upon the symbolism of the wheel and circular movements in custom and religious ritual. The author traces the underlying symbolism of the wheel, movements of worshippers and religious dances of many religions and races, to a common solar origin in which the turning of a prayer wheel or the motions of ceremonies all show the basic mystery of the sun's movement. Illustrated throughout. |
