Note(s) : Includes bibliographical references and index
In an increasingly global world where convenient modes of travel have opened the door
to international and intraregional tourism and brought together people from different
religious and ethnic communities, religious journeying in India has become the site
of evolving and often paradoxical forms of self-construction. Through ethnographic
reflections, the contributors to this volume explore religious and nonreligious motivations
for religious travel in India and show how pilgrimages, missionary travel, the exportation
of cultural art forms, and leisure travel among coreligionists are transforming not
only religious but also tribal, national, transnational, and personal identities.
The volume engages with central themes in South Asian studies such as gender, exile,
and spirituality; a variety of religions, including Sikhism, Islam, Buddhism, and
Christianity; and understudied regions and emerging places of pilgrimage such as Imphal,
Manipur and Shegaon, Maharashtra
