"When I See, I Sing" is a collection of poetry featuring the works of revered mystics Baba Farid, Namdeo, Kabir, and Rahim, translated with care and adorned with evocative illustrations. The title of the book, drawn from a poignant line by Baba Namdeo, encapsulates essence of this collection - a celebration of the connection between seeing and singing, between experiencing and expressing. Each poet brings a distinct perspective to the collection. Baba Farid, with his humane form of Islam, challenges conventional notions of elitism and division. Namdeo, confronted with caste discrimination, advocates for a direct relationship with the formless God, fostering devotion and compassion. Kabir, blending faiths and denouncing orthodoxy, promotes love and harmony amongst humankind. And Rahim, speaking of forbearance and commonplace wisdom, imparts uncommon insights into the human condition. "When I See, I Sing" invites readers to embrace diversity, harmony, and beauty.
