Catherine Hartmann, "Making the Invisible Real: Practice of Seeing in Tibetan Pilgrimage" (Oxford UP, 2025)
Catherine Hartmann, Assistant Professor of Asian Religions and author of Making the Invisible Real, studies how Tibetan pilgrims learn to perceive holy mountains as divine. She discusses transforming perception, debates over sacred sites like Kailash, the role of pilgrimage guides and diaries, and how visual practices, social life, and ritual forge extraordinary ways of seeing.
