These lectures were written in 1967 and 1968 and delivered, in an abridged form,
in June 1969. My intention was to collect, in a small compass, some material illustrating
the characters and interrelations of the great Hindu gods Visnu and Siva and to establish
a comparison between their religions. The field surveyed is, however, so vast and our
sources are so copious and manifold that inevitably many aspects are only briefly treated
or even completely omitted.
