Mystic
had rendered great service for the enrichment of the Punjabi language. To
convey their mystical teachings to the masses, they selected the folk lore of
the Punjab, an impressive media of propagation in the province. That is why
most mystic had always been scholars of the Punjabi language; Sain Maula Shah
was one of the mystic scholars. To propagate his mystic teachings, he selected
the Punjabi folk lore of Sassi Punnoo and compared the book under review.
The
verses in the book under review has composed in the style of Heer Waris Shah
and at times, the readers confused it with Heer Waris Shah itself Sain Maula
Shah has artistically interwoven the teaching of mysticism of this popular folk
lore. The book has been arranged in the conventional style of the classical
style religious literature, i.e., first hymn in praise of Allah, then
Naat-e-Rasul etc.
It
is a welcome addition to the Punjabi language, and will prove a good guide for
readers interested in the subject.
