Sadhu Vaswani was a singer of immortal songs in English and in his mother-tongue, the Sindhi language.Poems and articles flowed out of his pen like gushing streams down a mountain-side. Although his writings embrace many subjects, they are all in praise of the Lord and Divine Love."
Sadhu Vaswani's collection of Sindhi songs, the Nuri Granth, is one of the largest books in the literature of the world, enshrining the songs of a single poet-saint. The Nuri Granth is revered by many as a scripture: and every morning, before beginning the day's work, they read from it and carry its inspiration into their daily activities. The Nuri Granth is a world-scripture with a world-message.
He seldom wrote songs: he sang them as the Spirit in him moved, and they were taken down by those around him. Night after night, he kept awake and, in sheer rapture of ecstasy, sang songs which have been brought together in the Nuri Granth. It is revered by many of his countrymen, all over the world, as a Scripture. And it is the experience of many that whenever in doubt or a moment of indecision, they have, in faith and love, opened the Nuri Granth at random, they have received an answer.
