Hardback

Item not Available

Description

Veins of Devotion details recent collaborations between guruled devotional movements and public health campaigns to encourage voluntary blood donation in northern India.

The book analyzes the operations of several high-profile religious orders that organize large-scale public blood-giving events and argues that blood donation has become a site not only of frenetic competition between different devotional movements, but also of intense spiritual creativity.
