This groundbreaking ethnographic study examines two influential movements-Brahma Kumaris and Ramakrishna Movement-each offering distinct cosmologies and visions of human transformation that attract millions of followers across diverse social backgrounds.Through rich, comparative analysis, this book explores the socio-cultural forces driving the rise of these movements and their profound impact on devotees' lives. Who joins these communities and why How do charismatic founding leaders' legacies evolve across generations The study reveals how new religious identities form through intensive socialisation processes that transform everything from daily routines to fundamental worldviews.
