Sidi Sufis: African Indian mystics of Gujarat / Catlin-Jairazbhoy, Amy 2002  DVD
Catlin-Jairazbhoy, Amy DVD
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication Bhuj, Bharatiya Sanskriti Darshan Museum, 2002.
Description 27 min approxYellow Spine
Summary/Abstract Sidis are descendants of Africans who travelled across the Indian Ocean from East Africa over the last millennium or more. Gujarati Sidis are Sufi Muslim devotees of the African merchant-saint, Gori Pir. In their sacred songs, they credit Gori Pir with bringing the gift of joy (mauj/lehra) from the waves (mauj/lehra) of the sea. Sharing this sacred gift by cheering and healing the suffering souls who come to their shrines is their divine calling. The joyous energy of these African-Indian sounds recently thrilled audiences in England and Wales during the first Sidi tour abroad. These unique field recordings by UCLA ethnomusicologists Amy and Nazir Jairazbhoy were made in collaboration with Abdul Hamid Sidi and the Sidi community during their survey of Sidi shrines in Gujarat in 1999-2002. Proceeds benefit Sidi education projects in Gujarat.
