The two texts presented here illustrate how adepts of Sufism internalized and explained these practices, starting with an anonymous Persian translation of the \u003ci\u003eFifty Kamarupa Verses\u003c\/i\u003e in the fourteenth century, and concluding with\u003cem\u003e Science of Breath\u003c\/em\u003e composed in English by Hazrat Inayat Khan in the twentieth century. The long tradition of Sufi engagement with yoga, illustrated by these writings, reveals surprising intersections between Hindu and Muslim spiritual practices, and it poses a fascinating challenge to conventional assumptions about interreligious boundaries.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Carl Ernst, Patrick D'Silva\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1941810446\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781941810446\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Suluk Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/16\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 181\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.95h x 6.07w x 0.49d","brand":"Carl Ernst","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45065122119935,"sku":"9781941810446","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_82d62255-269e-436f-ac0e-2256b652e223.jpg?v=1712125583","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/breathtaking-revelations-carl-ernst-9781941810446","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
