Even a western anthropologist white gaze could have done a better reading of who and what the Yakshi is from a Hindu stand point, instead of the poor western superhero stereotype that a Kerala
Hindu folklore has been turned into by the jihadi gaze. In the process not only is there a deep schism between who the Yakshi is in Hindu myth and philosophy but also a creative poverty in reimagining it in Indian terms. A western superhero stereotype is the short cut that should be an affront to any creative artist working in an Indian milieu. The Yakshi is a folkloric expression of the supreme divine feminine or the Adi parashakti. Yaksha is Lord Shiva himself while Yakshi is the female embodiment of Shakti. Whether the supreme Shakti is seen as a grama devata or protector of village or a goddess of disease removal, an uncontrollable force of nature that men cannot easily subdue as in the Yakshi or as the supreme divine herself is a matter of place and location. The Yakshi finds an altar in almost every Devi temple in Kerala. She is worshipped. Because she is a small manifestation of the infinite power of the goddess. From this point of view, a Yakshi has a maternal relationship with Lord Ganesh who is sought to be reduced as a divine embodiment of the supreme being in order to demean his stature in Hindu culture. Ganesh, jihadis don’t understand, is an expression of the one supreme divine intelligence that permeates all of creation. He is the witness of all four states of consciousness. He is therefore the manifest expression of OM, first elucidated in the Mandukya Upanishad, at least 2000 years ago. That is the importance of Lord Ganesh in Hinduism. This attempt to demean Hinduism was made a few years ago by a Muslim MLA of the communist party. It erupted into a controversy at that time. Dulquer Salman the producer is devotedly following in the steps of Jihadis in Kerala who seek to hegemonize the Kerala cultural space and demean Hinduism in every way possible.
