Shri Sathya Sai Baba, its charismatic and controversial leader, attracts several million adherents from various national, ethnic, and religious backgrounds. In a dynamic account of the Sathya Sai movement's explosive growth, Winged Faith argues for a rethinking of globalization and the politics of identity in a religiously plural world. This study considers a new kind of cosmopolitanism located in an alternate understanding of difference and contestation. It considers how acts of "sacred spectating" and illusion, "moral stakeholding" and the problems of community are debated and experienced. A thrilling study of a transcultural and transurban phenomenon that questions narratives of self and being, circuits of sacred mobility, and the politics of affect, Winged Faith suggests new methods for discussing religion in a globalizing world and introduces readers to an easily critiqued yet not fully understood community. 606 $aGlobalization - Religious aspects 606 $aGlobalization -- Religious aspects 606 $aReligious pluralism 606 $aReligious pluralism 606 $aSathya Sai Baba - Cult 606 $aSathya Sai Baba, 1926-2011 -- Cult 606 $aGlobalization$xReligious aspects 606 $aReligious pluralism 606 $aReligion$2HILCC 606 $aIslam$2HILCC 606 $aPhilosophy & Religion$2HILCC 615 4$aGlobalization - Religious aspects. 615 4$aGlobalization -- Religious aspects. 615 4$aReligious pluralism. 615 4$aReligious pluralism. 615 4$aSathya Sai Baba - Cult. 615 4$aSathya Sai Baba, 1926-2011 -- Cult. 615 0$aGlobalization$xReligious aspects 615 0$aReligious pluralism 615 7$aReligion 615 7$aIslam 615 7$aPhilosophy & Religion 676 $a294.5092 700 $aSrinivas$b Tulasi, $01501061 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910791688603321 996 $aWinged Faith$93728052 997 $aUNINA
