The Sufi Imagination
Bangalore International Centre, 7, 4th Main Road, Domlur II Stage, Bangalore, Karnataka, 560071, India
About
Language: English, Punjabi
This session explores the enduring appeal of Sufi thought and its expression through Punjabi literature. Based on Khwabgah – The House of Dreams, the author offers a reading of select poems in Punjabi followed by their English translations. As he reflects on each in turn, he invites a detached generation to reclaim their spiritual roots.
The collection is an evocative ode to the undivided soul of Punjab. Drawing on the region’s rich Sufi literary heritage, the author will consider how themes of love, longing, humanism, spirituality and the search for truth continue to find voice in contemporary writing.
Venue: Library
Poetry, Longing and the Punjabi Soul
