Description

The extraordinary collection of interpretive paintings by Sadequain included in this book, based on the visions of the greatest Indian poet of the Urdu language, Ghalib, reminds us that renouncing the seduction and eschewing the allurement of material entrapments can help levitate mankind to an exalted state. This collection of paintings constitutes a singularly unique and extraordinary rendition of complex attributes of human nature at the highest level. Pablo Picasso said that a true artist “paints not what he sees, but what he feels.” The sumptuous collection of paintings in this book represents Sadequain’s perception, in which he draws inspiration from the ancient wisdom of Sufi traditions, which for centuries have represented some of mankind’s purest instincts. As archetypal expressions of mystic vision, these paintings transcend our latent susceptibilities. They hold a beacon to the path of enlightenment, guide through the gateway of spiritual freedom, and provide a conduit to transpersonal truth. The Hindi, Urdu, and English language inscriptions of Ghalib’s poetry corresponding to the paintings is an icing on the cake.
