SULTAN BAHU
Sultan Bahoo is one of the greatest Sufis of the world and his thought equals that of Jalal-ud-Din Rumi, the great and famous Persian Sufi poet of the twelve century. According to all records available, he was a man of God. With his heart fully and deeply immersed in the love of God and his feet firmly planted in the celestial spheres, he ardently longed to become one with the Primal Unity. He authored more than 140 books in Persian on mystical truths. In the Indo- Pak Sub-Continent, he is more renowned for his poetry; in Punjabi poetry that sings of love for God and pours forth his spontaneous and passionate longing for God. His path is the Sufi path of Love, and his surrender to the Divine Beloved is unconditional and complete. There is no ulterior motive in his pure love for God; he desired nothing but God only.
Human societies are united by certain common shared feelings, desires and values, e.g. the desire for the safety of human life and respect for human dignity, the ideal of peace, harmony, equity, justice, fair play and desire for a personal relationship of love with God. When these drives are deprived of positive cultivation, a society is formed wherein greed, materialism, animosity, cut-throat competition and hatred run rampant. Such a society promises nothing in the way of goodness and decency. When faith in God & Judgment day, the values of love and respect for fellow human beings, sincerity, honesty, purity, truthfulness, mercy, giving and caring that underlies the idea of human perfection are spurned and violated then the society becomes completely disordered. As a result chaos & confusion reign
