Revealed Grace

"This selection of letters furnishes the contemporary reader with an unusually rare glimpse into the formidably vast, yet finely textured, lifeworld of a towering figure in the history of Sufism, one whose teachings resonated far beyond the South Asian ambit in which they were initially nurtured. Undeterred by the notoriously elliptical Indo-Persian prose of the Maktubat, Buehler's judiciously selected and skillfully rendered translations make an important contribution to our understanding of this acclaimed "Renewer of the Second Millennium," a contribution which in the spirit of Sirhindi himself cannot but lead one to reconsider much of what has come before."--Erik S. Ohlander, back cover.
