Bulleh Shah — Beyond Caste, Beyond Self

In this episode of Kavinaama, we journey into the life and verses of Bulleh Shah — the mystic who challenged hierarchies and sought truth in love and surrender to his murshid. We explore his defiance of the caste system, his resonances with Guru Nanak’s vision, and his poetic lineage alongside Baba Farid and Ghalib. The conversation flows into reflections on Satinder Sartaj’s renditions, and a reading of a tender poem on parenthood — questioning how raising children reshapes the ego and the "protagonist syndrome." This episode is a blend of history, poetry, and philosophy, asking how Bulleh’s voice still guides us in breaking illusions of identity and self.
