During the night in the middle of the desert, whirling ice crystals slammed the earth at lightning speed. The crystalline spears of death pierced the ground and shattered in million pieces against the hot sand. The earsplitting scream of glass breaking magnified hundreds times and ascended to maximum capacity creating a sand storm with heavy rain and wind spinning counterclockwise in the middle of the remote region. The horrible noise hovered in mid-air, overwhelmed the surrounding wasteland and disintegrated. A sheet of red, transparent mist developed and lingered a few inches above the top layer of the sand. The moon, a great big round luminescent sphere, burned with raging force among the chaos. The shocking manifestation lasted for a split second. Eerie silence blanketed the earth. A shiny black stone dropped from the sky and cracked open. From the stone’s cavity surfaced bubbling smoke with exploding electric currents. The smooth flow of electricity erupted within the blinding lights and stretched outward. A mysterious life awakened within the center, ripped open the veil of kaleidoscope colors and entered the realm. Black bones materialized on the sand . . . Skin made of synthetic material wrapped the black bones and the process of metamorphosis initiated. Once the transformation completed, human giants rose from the sand to stand upon the earth . . .

Loving Stones is a study of devotees' conceptions of and worshipful interactions with Mount Govardhan, a sacred mountain located in the Braj region of north-central India that has for centuries been considered an embodied form of Krishna. It is often said that worship of Mount Govardhan "makes the impossible possible." In this book, David L. Haberman examines the perplexing paradox of an infinite god embodied in finite form, wherein each particular form is non-different from the unlimited. He takes on the task of interpreting the worship of a mountain and its stones for a culture in which this practice is quite alien. This challenge involves exploring the interpretive strategies that may explain what seems un-understandable, and calls for theoretical considerations of incongruity, inconceivability, and other realms of the impossible. This aspect of the book includes critical consideration of the place and history of the pejorative concept of idolatry (and its twin, anthropomorphism) in the comparative study of religions. Loving Stones uses the worship of Mount Govardhan as a site to explore ways in which scholars engaged in the difficult work of representing other cultures struggle to make "the impossible possible."
