Nice to see spirituality displayed in a beautiful way.
We should revisit our Sufi roots more often, as it will bring more inner peace in the soul and hopefully in our environment as well.

Data - Sahib was a great Sufi scholar. Though pictures shown here are beautiful but, I am sure he would not approve the activities conducted at his shrine.

Saint did not like dhamal, sweets and lamps in his life. Such useless worldly traditions are against his teachings.

Ali Hajveri Data Ganj Baksh (RA) was a great Sufi. He received appreciation from Moin ud Din Chishti Ajmiri. However, no body can prove that he practiced or allowed dhamal like activities.
