| Description: |
This is a collection of original articles focusing on Islamic spirituality as part of Indian culture, based on new translations of previously unavailable texts. This volume explores Sufism as it developed in the Indian subcontinent, and it presents unexpected glimpses into the role of Sufi mystics in the practice of yoga. |
| Synopsis: |
The essays explore Sufism as it developed in the Indian subcontinent, including translations of previously unavailable texts, and revealing unexpected insights into the lives, practices, and teachings of Indian Muslims over nearly a thousand years. They also trace remarkable moments in the history of Muslim engagement with Indian religious and cultural practices. This includes not only Muslim participation in Indian art and literature, but also the extraordinary role that Sufis have played in the practice of yoga. Employing new approaches to religious studies that avoid essentialism and ideological concepts of religion, and shorn of unnecessary jargon, these compelling essays will be easily accessible to a larger audience. |
