This
valuable book sheds much-needed light on certain near-unknown manifestations of
Sufic devotion amongst the denizens of Pakistan’s largest city—side by side
with modern life. The author also uncovers the principles behind this devotion,
which is an important service rendered by him.
For while there can be, and
indeed are, very many varying manifestations of Sufi devotion all over the
Muslim world, the underlying principles & philosophy behind them are the
same. Obviously, the terminology employed to describe these ideas varies from
time to time, place to place. The author’s use of predominantly sub-continental
terms will surely not be a hindrance to the perceptive reader of this book, who
will recognize the universality of the themes herein.
A multi-disciplinary artist
and musician, the author is also an initiate into a prominent Sufi order and
has been ‘on the path’ for 15 years. This gives him a special ‘insider’ point
of view to accompany his keen artistic eye and academic training, all of which
make this book a welcome addition to the literature on the subject; it will
benefit those interested in visual culture as well as those looking for clear
English-language expositions of Sufi devotional practice and symbolism.
