  • Modernity, Locality and the Performance of Emotion in Sufi Cults
    EMBODYING CHARISMA Emerging often suddenly and unpredictably, living Sufi saints practising in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh are today shaping and reshaping a sacred landscape. By extending new Sufi brotherhoods and focused regional cults, they embody a lived sacred reality. This collection of essays from many of the subject’s leading researchers argues that the power of Sufi ritual derives not from beliefs as a set of abstracted ideas but rather from rituals as transformative and embodied aesthetic practices and ritual processes, Sufi cults reconstitute the sacred as a concrete emotional and as a dissenting tradition, they embody politically potent postcolonial counternarrative. The book therefore challenges previous opposites, up until now used as a tool for analysis, such as magic versus religion, ritual versus mystical belief, body versus mind and syncretic practice versus Islamic orthodoxy, by highlighting the connections between Sufi cosmologies, ethical ideas and bodily ritual practices. With its wide-ranging historical analysis as well as its contemporary research, this collection of case studies is an essential addition to courses on ritual and religion in sociology, anthropology and Islamic or South Asian studies. Its ethnographically rich and vividly written narratives reveal the important contributions that the analysis of Sufism can make to a wider theory of religious movements and charismatic ritual in the context of late twentieth-century modernity and postcoloniality. Pnina Werbner is Reader in Social Anthropology at Keele University. She has published on Sufism as a transnational cult and has a growing reputation among Islamic scholars for her work on the political imaginaries of British Islam. Helene Basu teaches Social Anthropology at the Institut für Ethnologie in Berlin.

  • Sufis and Gods: Temples and Shrines of Southeast Asia This Course
    Sufis and Gods: Temples and Shrines of Southeast Asia This course introduces students to the religious worlds of the South Asian diaspora in Malaysia and Singapore, centered upon Hindu, Muslim and Sikh temples and shrines. The course aims to deepen students’ understanding about historical and contemporary South Asian religious worlds in port cities such as Singapore, Melaka and Penang through introducing them to the academic literature on South Asian Sufis, gods, temples and shrines in these cities, and alternatively, through visits to shrines and temples in Malaysia and Singapore. These visits will equip students with a deeper understanding of the religious practices, traditions and rituals of the historical and contemporary South Asian diaspora. In the Spring break, students will be familiarized with the temples and shrines of Melaka, Penang and Singapore, most of which can be traced to the settlement of South Asians from Tamil Nadu, Uttar Pradesh and Punjab in the 19th century. The trip will commence in Singapore. Thereon, the class will proceed to Malaysia). Throughout this period, students will be introduced to, on the one hand, temples devoted to Saiva gods and shrines dedicated to saints who undertook voluntary or involuntary journeys to Southeast Asian cities. On the other hand, the active religious worlds of South Asian devotional cults in Southeast Asia, and a variety of religious traditions, festivals, performances and rituals from Sufi musical sessions to Saiva ecstatic trances. Throughout this period, students will be strongly encouraged to consider ways in which a study of the religious worlds of the South Asian diaspora can benefit from an intense engagement with the ‘lived’ practices of Hinduism, Islam and Sikhism in the shrines and temples of Singapore, Melaka and Penang.

  • Research of Note
    8 Research of Note RESEARCH OF NOTE Editors’ Note: The following article is a transcription of Professor Asher’s keynote address to the ASIANetwork Conference in Lisle, Illinois, March 2009. Belief and Contestation in India: The Case of the Taj Mahal Catherine B. Asher University of Minnesota Of all the buildings in the world, the Taj Mahal is one of the most famous. It is renowned for its beauty, and, for many, it is a symbol of romantic love. Yet surprisingly the Taj Mahal is increasingly becoming a highly contested site. Recent challenges include questioning its Muslim Mughal patronage, its function as a royal tomb, and even its 17th-century date of construction. This probably sounds to The Taj Mahal you like scholarship as 17th century usual, but before I Agra, India address the uncritical nature of these claims, I’d like to think about the larger issue of religious belief and contestation of ASIANetwork Exchange Belief and Contestation in India 9 religious sites in South Asia. That may help contextualize the case of the Taj Mahal. Let me make a few observations. Contested religious space is not a notion new to India, despite a tendency to see it as a legacy of colonialism.1 Let’s start in eastern India at Bodhgaya’s Mahabodhi temple because it suggests multiple fields of contestation. This is the site of the Buddha’s Enlightenment, a place that has been both shared and contested through its history.2 The future Buddha went to Bodhgaya because it was and remains a place of considerable importance for Hindus.

  • Sufism – a Panacea for Burgeoning Fundamentalism, Strife and Sectarian Violence in the Present Times
    23-25 May 2016- Istanbul, Turkey Proceedings of SOCIOINT 2016 3rd International Conference on Education, Social Sciences and Humanities SUFISM – A PANACEA FOR BURGEONING FUNDAMENTALISM, STRIFE AND SECTARIAN VIOLENCE IN THE PRESENT TIMES Preeti Singh1, Rajender Pal Singh2 1Dr., University of Delhi, INDIA, [email protected] 2Dr., SHIATS Deemed University, INDIA, [email protected] Abstract This paper focuses on the immense potential that the holistic and transcendent philosophy of Sufism contains in providing the world with an alternative approach that can help to counter the serious challenges to global peace and order in present times when almost every region in the world is facing grave problems of violence, interminable conflicts, sectarian divisions, political upheavals, burgeoning extremism and fundamentalism. It has been accepted that the universal secular visions and ideologies of the past have failed to forge a peace culture for humanity and therefore, it is the emergent need of the hour to draw upon the harmonizing and syncretizing impact of Sufism, to counter disruptive and divisive forces that have threatened the very fabric of global society Apart from referring to the history and influence of Sufism in the Middle East, North Africa and Asia in general, there is specific reference in this paper, to the enduring wisdom and invaluable contribution of this non sectarian, inclusive spiritual universalism in bridging communal divides in Indian society from Medieval to present times. This Sufi based approach that has helped to confront stringent and narrow ideologies, can serve as an antidote to the current malady of violence and disequilibrium in today’s chaotic world.

  • Religions in Singapore: a Historical Overview A/P Bruce Lockhart
    HistoriaSG Online Publication Religions in Singapore: A Historical Overview A/P Bruce Lockhart, History Department, National University of Singapore National Museum of Singapore, Gallery Theatre 27 May 2017 Introduction Associate Professor Bruce Lockhart presented a talk on “Religions in Singapore: A Historical Overview”. He structured his presentation into three broad stages: Communities Established (1819–1867), Communities Consolidated and Expanded (1867–1965), and Communities Diversified (1965–present). He found that the historical records were on the histories of the buildings rather than the religions themselves. His approach was therefore to look at the communities that practised the religions. The colonial government had grouped the different ethnic communities into different kampongs (“villages” in Malay) and hence religions might also be grouped according to these communities. While A/P Lockhart spoke on major and minor religions in Singapore, this report will focus on the major ones due to the brevity of the publication. His focus, however, was not simply on the religions, but on their characteristics seen in each of the three periods. Communities Established (1819–1867) Communities and Religion in Early Singapore One might imagine missionaries streaming in with the trading companies during the colonial period, but this was not the case. The East India Company (EIC), which Sir Stamford Raffles represented, prioritised trade. In fact, many of the trading companies had mixed feelings about missionaries and were not concerned whether locals were converted. In Singapore, the EIC did not support religion but was not against it either. After Sir Stamford Raffles signed the treaty allowing the EIC to set up a trading post in Singapore, immigrants flowing into Singapore brought their own religions with them.
