The thirteen essays in this volume collectively bring to the fore Hazrat Inayat Khan's remarkable multidimensionality. The figure that emerges eludes easy categorisation. We are confronted with a paragon of high Mughal culture who was equally a forerunner of post-nationalist cosmopolitanism; a performer of sacred music and a sage with a musical message; a tradition-sanctioned Chishti initiator inspired with an urgent transcendental vision of radical ecumenism and global spiritual renewal.
