520 This book provides a set of fresh and compelling
interdisciplinary approaches to the enduring phenomenon of
the guru in South Asia. Moving across different gurus and
kinds of gurus, and between past and present, the chapters
call attention to the extraordinary scope and richness of
the social lives and roles of South Asian gurus.
Prevailing scholarship has rightly considered the guru to
be a source of religious and philosophical knowledge and
mystical bodily practices. This book goes further and
considers the social engagements and entanglements of
these spiritual leaders, not just on their.
