This study is an exploratory attempt to put the wisdom of the Fakirs in conversation with established social theorists of the body, arguing that the Aristotelian conceptualization of habitus is more useful than Bourdieu’s in explaining the power of bodily practices of the initiates. My ethnographic research with the prominent Fakirs—participant observation, in-depth interview, and textual analysis of Lalon’s songs—shows how the body can be educated not only to defy, resist, or transgress dominant socio-political norms, but also to cultivate an alternative subjectivity and sociality.

  • Searching for the Greatest Bengali: the BBC and Shifting Identity
    National Identities Vol. 10, No. 2, June 2008, 149Á165 Searching for the greatest Bengali: The BBC and shifting identity categories in South Asia Reece Jones* University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA Drawing on debates generated by the BBC Bengali Language Service’s naming of the greatest Bengali of all time, this article investigates the shifting boundaries between group identity categories in our ‘globalising’ world. First, the con- troversy over the meaning of the term ‘Bengali’, which emerged in contemporary Bangladesh and India in response to the BBC’s list, is investigated. Then writings and speeches of several of the individuals who were honoured as the greatest Bengalis are analysed in order to draw out the multiple ways they approached their own Bengali identities. In the conclusion, it is argued that rather than imagining the end of place-based identity categories through the process of globalisation, it is more useful to conceptualise shifting categories that continue Downloaded By: [Jones, Reece] At: 15:14 29 April 2008 to incorporate a place-based aspect, but in hybrid and contradictory ways. Keywords: categories; ethnicity; nations; globalisation; South Asia In Spring 2004, following the British Broadcasting Company’s naming of Winston Churchill as the greatest Briton of all time, the BBC Bengali Language Service conducted a survey of its twelve million listeners to determine the greatest Bengali of all time (BBC, 2004).1 Respondents were asked to rank their top five choices and in the end more than 100 individuals received votes. The top twenty were announced one per day beginning on 26 March, Bangladesh’s Independence Day, and ending on 15 April, the Bengali New Year’s Day, with the naming of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman as the greatest Bengali of all time.

  • ABOUT KINGDOMS and SULTANATES Bangladesh History and Culture Tour (14 Days)
    ABOUT KINGDOMS AND SULTANATES Bangladesh history and culture tour (14 days) Bengal‘s settlement history goes back to the 6th century. We will follow in the footsteps of former powerful ruling dynasties, which blossomed the Buddhist, Hindu and Muslim empires here in Bengal and left behind a whole series of extraordinary monuments that testify to a time of prosperity and development. But the British East India Company also left behind numerous buildings, as did the last era in the history of historic Bengal, that of the rule of the British crown. So the country is rich in history and cultural legacies, and they also have a very relaxed relationship with history here. We will encounter living history almost everywhere, which means that historical areas or the half-dilapidated witnesses of times long past are well used or even inhabited. Of course, you also gain an insight into the living conditions of Bengali residents today... You will encounter silent witnesses to history as lively and lively the present. Scenic highlights are paired with religious traditions, the everyday life of the village communities with that of the megacities. You can still find traditional agriculture and fishing everywhere, in the cities craft and trade are still as public as when the British conquered the country. In other words, there are a myriad of impressions and experiences that are waiting for you and that cannot replace a newspaper report or a television program. Sure, it is exhausting to travel away from touristically developed regions, but Bangladesh will

  • The Myth of Secrecy and the Study of the Esoteric Traditions of Bengal
    religions Article “I Am Afraid of Telling You This, Lest You’d Be Scared Shitless!”: The Myth of Secrecy and the Study of the Esoteric Traditions of Bengal Carola Erika Lorea J. Gonda Research Fellow at International Institute for Asian Studies, 2311 GJ Leiden, The Netherlands; [email protected] Received: 5 March 2018; Accepted: 11 May 2018; Published: 25 May 2018 Abstract: As the verse chosen as a title for this article emblematically shows, esoteric movements have consistently used secrecy as a literary topos in their oral and written cultural expressions for a number of purposes. Scholars of South Asian religions, especially those in field of Tantric studies, have been scrutinizing for decades the need for secretive doctrines and a secret code-language (sandhya¯ bha¯s.a¯), mostly interrogating textual sources and neglecting the contemporary experience and exegetical authority of living lineages. In this paper, I firstly address ethical and epistemological problems in the study of esoteric religious movements in order to propose innovative methodological strategies. Then, I offer numerous examples drawn from extensive field-work and in-depth literary study of contemporary esoteric lineages of West Bengal (India) and Bangladesh, in order to discuss the local discourse on secrecy. Finally, I review previously assumed notions on secrecy in South Asian religions, and I suggest to take into serious consideration local perspectives on the accessibility of esoteric knowledge, leading to a more nuanced idea of secrecy, constantly subjected to temporal and situational negotiations between silence and disclosure. Keywords: Baul¯ Fakir; Sahajiy˙ a;¯ Vais.n. ava; Tantra; Kartabhaj¯ a;¯ sandhya¯ bha¯s.a;¯ exegesis; guru; contemporary West Bengal; Bangladesh 1.

The mausoleum of Fakir Lalon Shah is located in the town of Kushtia in the western part of Bangladesh. The religious poet Lalon Shah is known as a master of baul, a school of wandering minstrels in Bengal, who sing mystical songs called baul-gan. Lalon Shah was one of the most famous poets and masters of the bauls in 19th century Bengal. The disciples of Lalon Shah inherited his teachings and continue their ritual practices in the vicinity of the mausoleum. The disciples serve not only as the singers of baul songs, but also maintain the ascetic practices of baul, which are inherited through the master- disciple relations directly from the saint Lalon Shah himself. This paper focuses on a series of events that occurred at the mausoleum of Lalon Shah when the Prime Minister of Bangladesh announced a mausoleum renovation project with a budget of 36,430,000 taka in 1997.

  • Tagore Song Symhony of Life
    International Journal of Advanced Science and Technology Vol. 29, No. 11s, (2020), pp. 3328-3340 Tagore song symhony of life 1MD. HASAN IMAM, 2MD.SADEKUL ISLAM 1Assistant Professor (English), Modern Language Center, Khulna University, Bangladesh 2Assistant Professor, Department of English, Lalmonirhat Govt. College, Lalmonirhat, Bangladesh Abstract RabindraSangeet, the songs of Rabindranath Tagore, occupies one of the top positions in the South-Asian classical music. These songs are regarded as the cultural treasure in both Bangladesh and west Bengal of India. Dealing with spirituality and transcendental love, Rabindra Sangeet is liked and adored all over the world by people. The theme of these songs are so wide and broad in range that it covers the ordinary to artistic arena and are able to represent the true feelings of every possible sector of the human society. The general ethos of the people of this part is influenced by the songs of Tagore. So, RabindraSangeet demands educated, reflective and cultured audiences to appreciate the lyrical beauty and depth of thought of his compositions. There was also a representation of the western tunes in his songs. This is for the reason; he could maintain his own distinctive messages even after using varied elements from other musical sources and these tunes can be easily identified even when he has based them on other musical forms because of this quality. So, this paper aims at identifying different artistic qualities of RabindraSangeet, i.e., the songs of Rabindranath Tagore that helped him to be crowned as the World Poet Keywords: Bangladesh, West Bengal, South Asia, Classical Music, Western tune and transcendental love Introduction Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941), a Pirali Brahmin, from Kolkata is a seminal figure of the Bengali speaking people of West-Bengal and Bangladesh.
