Ramey recognizes how the dominant definitions of Hinduism, Islam, and Sikhism challenge communities who defy such understandings and analyzes the ways Sindhi Hindus have established their unconventional practices and heritage in the context of their diaspora. By analyzing concrete examples of the creation of a heritage in the context of migration, this book considers the implications of representations of religions for Sindhi Hindus and other similar communities."--BOOK JACKET. 000446904 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000446904 650_0 $$aSindhi (South Asian people)$$zIndia$$xReligion. 000446904 650_0 $$aSindhi (South Asian people)$$zIndia$$xEthnic identity. 000446904 650_0 $$aHinduism$$xRelations. 000446904 650_0 $$aHindus$$zPakistan$$zSindh$$xMigrations. 000446904 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 000446904 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aRamey, Steven Wesley.$$tHindu, Sufi, or Sikh.$$b1st ed.$$dNew York, NY : Palgrave Macmillan, 2008$$z9780230608320$$w(DLC) 2008004626$$w(OCoLC)192050012 000446904 8520_ $$bacq 000446904 85280 $$bebk$$hProquest Ebook Central 000446904 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=455392$$zOnline Access 000446904 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:446904$$pGLOBAL_SET 000446904 980__ $$aEBOOK 000446904 980__ $$aBIB 000446904 982__ $$aEbook 000446904 983__ $$aOnline
