It brings out the significance of Sufi and deity shrines as alternative places of worship that give meaning and purpose to people’s lives. It includes sites and practices commonly associated with Islam/Sufism and Hinduism as spaces of shared culture. Most of the existing literature of Jammu and Kashmir is on Kashmir focusing mostly on topics such as politics, state, identity, conflict or violence. This book proposes to go beyond these works by delimiting the focus and area of the study to culture, society and religion. It explores the sites of religious pluralism and tolerance in the violence-ridden territory of Jammu and Kashmir. The chapters are mainly based on ethnographic data collected through qualitative methods like observation – participant and non-participant, case studies, in-depth interviews and oral history. The book is of interest to researchers, both faculty and graduate students, in the areas of sociology of religion, social anthropology, religious studies, cultural studies, Sufism, shrines and deity worship in South Asia. | | 出版日期 | Book 2021 | | 关键词 | Sufis; Deities; Jammu & Kashmir; Shrine; Sacred Spaces, Myths, Rituals; pilgrimage; religion and society | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-16-1598-6 | | isbn_softcover | 978-981-16-1600-6 | | isbn_ebook | 978-981-16-1598-6 | | copyright | Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2021 |
