• Devotional Spaces of a Global Saint explores the ongoing influence and presence of Shirdi Sai Baba in postcolonial South Asia and the global diaspora.
• The essays examine the saint's impact on daily life through visual, narrative, performative, political, social, and spatial devotional practices.
• Contributions from twelve scholars cover sacred materials, devotional spatialities, visual and digital imaginations, transcultural narratives, and the material effects of Sai Baba’s legacy.
• The work challenges typical scholarly discussions around sainthood, worship cultures, religious objects, Hinduism, and Islam.
• It highlights Sai Baba’s inclusive approach to people of all castes and creeds, offering alternatives to communal ideologies past and present.
• The book situates debates about nation, religion, urbanization, and class identity within transitions from colonial to postcolonial and global South Asia.
