BHAKTI AND SUFI MOVEMENTS: SPIRITUAL SYNTHESIS IN MEDIEVAL INDIAN SOCIETY

Vishwanath V. M.

Published By : Laxmi Book Publication

Abstract :

The Bhakti and Sufi movements, prominent spiritual expressions in medieval India, continue to resonate through time as dynamic forces of cultural synthesis, inclusivity, and social transformation. Emerging from distinct religious traditions, the Bhakti movement emphasized devotion to deities and rejection of caste hierarchies, while the Sufi movement focused on mystical experiences of Allah and adaptation to local cultures.
