About the Book:
This work of history, richly informed by the anthropology of religion and art, traces the fusion of royal dynastic cults and shrine-centered Sufism within the imperial cultures of Timurid Central Asia, Safavid Iran, and Mughal India. The author explores how these two traditions intersected, creating a unique cultural and religious synthesis that shaped the political and spiritual landscapes of these regions.
Through a detailed analysis, the book delves into the intricate relationships between dynastic power and religious devotion, particularly focusing on how rulers and Sufi mystics collaborated to establish shrines as centers of political, social, and religious influence. The study also examines the role of art, architecture, and ritual in the reinforcement of royal authority and the spread of Sufi practices.
