Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philosophical assessment of abstract and symbolic notions underlying the spiritual visions of the saints is not an easy task. Professor Bhatnagar has admirably done this work. In ten chapters of this treatise he clarifies the mystical experiences and sayings of medieval Muslim saints and examines them from philosophical standpoint. This monograph has its groundings in intensive study of the primary sources in the original like Kashf al-Mahjub of Al-Hujwiri, Risala of Al-Qushayri, Kitab al-luma' of Al-Sarraj, Kitab al-ta' arruf of Kalabadhi and Tadhikirat al-awliya' of 'Attar. Quotations of the saints have been given in original language. Professor Bhatnagar feels that the teachings of the prophet of Islam are best understood by the Sufis on account of their mystical experiences gained on the Path of God. According to the author, the chief tenets of medieval Sufism are mahabbat (love for God), ma 'rifa (knowledge of God) and al-tawhid (soul's unification with God). Besides, this work is an impartial assessment of divergent taruq (Sufi sects) and schools of Sufi thought. In addition, the author has examined the philosophical doctrines of the eminent Sufis of India. by an Indian scholar of Philosophy and Islamic mysticism is an excellent addition to the existing knowledge of Sufi thought.

Book Synopsis Religion and the Specter of the West by : Arvind-Pal S. Mandair
Download or read book Religion and the Specter of the West written by Arvind-Pal S. Mandair and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2009-10-22 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arguing that intellectual movements, such as deconstruction, postsecular theory, and political theology, have different implications for cultures and societies that live with the debilitating effects of past imperialisms, Arvind Mandair unsettles the politics of knowledge construction in which the category of "religion" continues to be central. Through a case study of Sikhism, he launches an extended critique of religion as a cultural universal. At the same time, he presents a portrait of how certain aspects of Sikh tradition were reinvented as "religion" during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. India's imperial elite subtly recast Sikh tradition as a sui generis religion, which robbed its teachings of their political force. In turn, Sikhs began to define themselves as a "nation" and a "world religion" that was separate from, but parallel to, the rise of the Indian state and global Hinduism. Rather than investigate these processes in isolation from Europe, Mandair shifts the focus closer to the political history of ideas, thereby recovering part of Europe's repressed colonial memory. Mandair rethinks the intersection of religion and the secular in discourses such as history of religions, postcolonial theory, and recent continental philosophy. Though seemingly unconnected, these discourses are shown to be linked to a philosophy of "generalized translation" that emerged as a key conceptual matrix in the colonial encounter between India and the West. In this riveting study, Mandair demonstrates how this philosophy of translation continues to influence the repetitions of religion and identity politics in the lives of South Asians, and the way the academy, state, and media have analyzed such phenomena.
