About the Book

Sufism in Islamic tradition has for centuries been a source of inner peace, spiritual awakening and enlightenment for millions of human beings. It has also been a matter of debate among scholars regarding the questions related to its origin, nature and external manifestations.
This volume, having 29 well researched papers, seeks to present a wide spectrum of perspectives and in-depth studies on different aspects of Islamic Sufism and Indian Mysticism, and their interface, that has manifested itself through the history of Islam's interaction with India, spread over a time-frame of more than a millennium. The contributions in this volume are made by some of the most renowned scholars and experts in the fields of philosophy, Islamic studies, comparative religions, psychology, sociology, history and journalism.
