Sarmad : My friend, engage your heart

The mystic Sarmad (d. 1659 CE) was buried near the Jama Masjid in Delhi after being martyred by the Emperor Aurangzeb. For more about him, see this earlier post.

My friend, engage your heart in his embrace
     and rise to the inner sky.
Do not forget the words of this devotee:
Erase both worlds from your heart.

Translation Isaac A. Ezeliel
