Known as one of the greatest Sufi works in history, Shah Abdul Latif's Shah Jo Risalo is a prayer, a cry for the Beloved.
Written more than 250 years ago, Latif's poetry is deeply rooted in the human experience of searching for the self - a self that is one with the nirakaar, the omnipresent, centred within yet diffuse as attar.
About the author (from The Indian Express):
"By the end of the 17th century, there appeared the greatest Sufi poet of Sindh, Shah Abdul Latif..who infused new life into the desert..."
