Hakim Sanai ~ 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐆𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐭𝐡 ~ Sufi Mystics

A reading of Sanai's beautiful and profound, The Walled Garden of
Truth.  Born in Ghazni in the south of Afghanistan sometime
during the eleventh century, Sanai is considered one of the most
influential early mystics from the Persian region. Despite his
strong influence not much is known about his life and much is
gleaned from his poetry which is often autobiographical. His name
is generally spoken of in the same breath as Shaikh Faridu’d-Din
‘Attar, both of whom are have been a major influence on those
mystics and poets who followed in their tradition. Rumi
acknowledged Hakim Sanai and Attar as his two primary
inspirations, saying, “Attar is the soul and Sanai its two eyes,
I came after Sanai and Attar.”
