Scholars are yet to explore this non-traditional career choice for women and currently, there is no scholarship exploring the narratives and experiences of female Hindu priests.

Enacting professional selves vis-à-vis male priests, by experiencing a female gaze, and by doing meaningful work as a calling, these women make sense of their occupational outsider within lives as priests. | ||
