In the 16th century in Punjab, Shah Hussain, a Sufi poet and mystic met and fell in love with a Hindu boy called named Madho Lal. Though gay marriage was not legal anywhere in the world before this century, Hussain and Madho defied social conventions and lived together for six years till Hussain's death in 1599. Hussain's poetry is significantly inspired by his relationship with Madho, with some poems addressed directly to him. After Hussain's death Madho continued to live close to where he was buried in present day Baghbanpura in Lahore, and was buried next to Hussain after his death. They continue to lie buried side by side in the same enclosure to this day, and the enclosure is named Hazrat Madho Lal Hussain, embodying one soul living in two bodies.
The annual celebration called Mela Chiraghan or Festival of Lights is held in March in Lahore in order to celebrate the love of Madho and Hussain as well as Hussain's poetry. It is unknown how the ritual was established, but it dates as far back as the the 18th century: there are records of Maharaja Ranjit Singh leading a barefooted procession from the Fort to the mausoleum for this celebration. At present, the festival is conducted over three days and attracts large crowds. Cotton-seed oil lamps are lighted in the streets and houses of the city. Devotees sing and dance and read Hussain's poetry in order to commemorate the triumph of tolerance over forces of bigotry.

here's how armand can still be bengali
why do i think so? no other good reason than i am bengali myself and i want armand to be. (also assad zaman's family is from bangladesh. bengali solidarity!!!)
bengal: the region in south asia comprising present-day bangladesh and the indian states of west bengal, odisha, assam and parts of bihar.
armand said in the season one finale, that takes place in 2022, he is a 514 year old vampire. is it 514 years including or excluding his human years? let's go with including. that means armand would have been born in 1508.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
now what was going on in india and bengal in 1508? well, the mughals hadn't come to india yet; it's still about two decades before babur makes his way here. delhi was under the rule of the lodi dynasty, the delhi sultanate was in its dying days. most of north india, mainly uttar pradesh and bihar was under the jaunpur sultanate. bengal was still it's own independent kingdom, called the bengal sultanate. alauddin hussain shah had just seized power and become the sultan of bengal in 1494, beginning the hussain shahi dynasty (they ruled in bengal till 1538 when the mughals captured the region).
india as a country did not exist yet. even it's conception would be a few centuries away still. the subcontinent was a collection of big and small kingdoms and sultanates, constantly warring amongst themselves, some ruled by hindu rulers others by muslims, each with their own distinct histories and cultures. bengal was one of the most prosperous and thriving among them. the bangla language and bengali culture was just beginning to develop.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
vasco da gama had arrived in india in 1498, landing at kozhikode on the malabar coast. this began the arrival of the portugese in india, and soon other european colonialists followed. they soon set up their capital in goa, built forts all along the western coast and established trade through obtaining licenses and exclusive permits from local rulers. they first made their way to the bay of bengal region around 1516, with the first portugese representative- a guy called joao coelho- coming to chittagong (present day bangladesh). the first factory was set up in chittagong the next year.
the portugese traded in spices and cotton and fruits and muslin and also slaves. the european indian ocean slave trade began with the coming of the portugese in the early 16th century. slavery in south asian societies had obviously existed long before, and it was a deeply complex and diverse system of dependency and regimes of slavery. slavery of youth and children was also pretty prevalent: it would not be uncommon for poor, farming families to sell away themselves or their children to zamindars (landlords) and colonial overlords in desperation. there were many, many cases of young children being forced to get onboard ships where they'd be held agains their will and taken to europe, the americas or south-east asia. goa and lisbon were the two cities that linked the movement of goods and people between the indian and atlantic oceans, but goa wasn't the only place where enslaved children were traded in portugese india nor lisbon the only european they were taken to.
one of those kids might as well have been arun.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
i know the brief glimpse at the talamasca files showed armand's origin to be in delhi but in this particular scene he clearly says that he was sent *to* delhi, thinking he was going to work on a merchant boat.
this is just a theory i have btw. armand could've been from maharastra or the deccan as well idk. anyway.
armand is a monster, a vicious, villanious creature of unfathomable powers and ferocity. but he is also so deeply tragic. he had been forcibly torn away from his people and his land. he has no memory of his family or his humanity. he has lived for over half a millenium. the india he might've known hasn't existed for centuries, and he never got to know the one that exists today. the bangla he might've spoken no one remembers anymore. he has nothing left of the human he was except that name.

Understanding the Essence of Sufi and Sant Poetry
Sufi and Sant poetry are two deeply spiritual and philosophical traditions that have enriched the cultural and literary heritage of South Asia and beyond. Sufi poetry, often associated with mysticism and the quest for divine love, is known for its profound depth and emotional resonance. Sant Vani, on the other hand, comprises the devotional songs of the Sant tradition, emphasizing ethical living, devotion to God, and social equality.
These poetic forms have not only provided spiritual solace to millions but have also acted as a medium for social reform, challenging rigid societal norms and advocating for a more inclusive and compassionate worldview.
Famous Sufi Poets and Their Contributions
Bulleh Shah Bulleh Shah is one of the most celebrated Sufi poets whose verses transcend the boundaries of time and culture. His poetry, written in Punjabi, is a testament to his profound spiritual journey and his quest for unity with the Divine. Bulleh Shah’s works, such as "Bulleya Ki Jaana Main Kaun," are timeless classics that continue to inspire and resonate with readers around the world.
Rumi Jalal ad-Din Muhammad Rumi, more commonly known as Rumi, is perhaps the most famous Sufi poet in the world. His works, written in Persian, have been translated into numerous languages and are widely read across the globe. Rumi’s poetry, encapsulated in his magnum opus "Masnavi," explores themes of divine love, the soul’s journey towards God, and the nature of existence.
Amir Khusro Amir Khusro, a prolific Persian poet and a disciple of Nizamuddin Auliya, made significant contributions to Sufi literature and music. He is often credited with the invention of several musical instruments and the development of new genres of poetry. His ghazals and qawwalis are integral to the Sufi musical tradition and continue to be performed with great reverence.
Prominent Themes in Sant Vani
Sant Vani, the poetic expressions of the Bhakti saints, often revolve around themes of love, devotion, and social justice. The Bhakti movement, which gave rise to Sant Vani, sought to transcend the barriers of caste and creed, promoting a direct and personal relationship with the Divine.
Love and Devotion The Bhakti saints, such as Kabir and Guru Nanak, emphasized the importance of love and devotion in their teachings. Kabir’s dohas (couplets) are renowned for their simplicity and profound wisdom, urging individuals to seek the Divine within themselves and to practice love and compassion in their daily lives.
Humanity and Social Equality The Bhakti poets often used their verses to challenge societal norms and advocate for social justice. Guru Nanak, the founder of Sikhism, composed hymns that spoke against the caste system and gender discrimination, promoting the ideals of equality and universal brotherhood.
Famous Qawwals and Their Contributions
Qawwali, a form of Sufi devotional music, has a rich history and a profound impact on South Asian culture. This genre, characterized by its repetitive and hypnotic melodies, is designed to induce a state of spiritual ecstasy and divine connection.
Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan is often hailed as the greatest qawwal of all time. His powerful voice and emotive renditions of Sufi poetry have captivated audiences worldwide. His contributions to qawwali music have not only preserved this ancient tradition but also brought it to the global stage, influencing musicians across various genres.
Sabri Brothers The Sabri Brothers, a legendary qawwali group from Pakistan, are known for their dynamic performances and soulful renditions of Sufi poetry. Their qawwalis, such as "Bhar Do Jholi Meri" and "Tajdar-e-Haram," are celebrated for their spiritual fervor and emotional depth.
Abida Parveen Abida Parveen, one of the most iconic female Sufi singers, has made significant contributions to the world of Sufi music. Her powerful and evocative voice has brought the poetry of Sufi saints to life, making her one of the most revered figures in the genre.
Recommended E-Books for Sufi and Sant Poetry
For those looking to delve deeper into the rich traditions of Sufi and Sant poetry, numerous e-books are available online. These digital collections provide a convenient way to explore the profound wisdom and spiritual insights of the Sufi and Bhakti poets.
"The Essential Rumi" by Coleman Barks This renowned translation of Rumi’s poetry by Coleman Barks captures the essence of Rumi’s mystical and spiritual insights. The book includes some of Rumi’s most famous poems, making it an essential read for anyone interested in Sufi literature.
"Songs of Kabir" by Rabindranath Tagore Rabindranath Tagore’s translation of Kabir’s dohas brings the profound wisdom of this Bhakti saint to a global audience. The book offers a selection of Kabir’s most insightful and thought-provoking verses, providing a glimpse into his spiritual teachings.
"The Conference of the Birds" by Attar of Nishapur This classic Persian poem, written by the Sufi poet Attar of Nishapur, is an allegorical journey of the soul towards enlightenment. The book, available in various translations, is a profound exploration of Sufi philosophy and spiritual quest.

A Glance at Babrak Arghand's Short Story: "Music and Songs" 
A Glance at Babrak Arghand's Short Story: "Music and Songs" 
By Farhad Azad  June 2, 2024 
In سازها و آوازها "Music and Songs," ببرک ارغند Babrak Arghand, a noted novelist born in کابل Kabul in 1949 and passed away in Holland in 2019, crafts a magical realist tale of return. The narrator finds himself in the labyrinthine alleys of خرابات Kharabat, the musician's quarter nestled beneath Kabul's ancient Bala Hissar fortress. Amidst the decay of a seemingly abandoned courtyard, a flickering lantern reveals an old acquaintance, a musician playing the santoor alongside his mother.
The story unfolds, revealing a tale of heartbreak and societal constraints. In the societal structure of Kabul during the story's time, musicians occupied a lower social rung, often considered a caste apart. While wealthy families hired them to teach and perform, they maintained a strict distance, embodying the phrase "Kept by the door, fed by the door." This social hierarchy, with its rigid boundaries, plays a significant role in the narrative.
Arghand's narrative channels this societal divide, particularly the rare but tragic instances of musicians falling in love with women of higher social standing only to face harsh consequences. 
The story is imbued with the enchanting lyrics of the famed song من جان خرابات ام "I'm the soul of Kharabat," written by the 19th-century poet مستان شاه کابلی Mastan Shah Kabuli and popularized by the renowned Kabuli-born musician استاد محمدحسین سرآهنگ Ustad Mohammad Hussain Sarahang (1924-83). The lyrics, with their Sufi undertones of ego loss and spiritual seeking, perfectly complement Arghand's magical realist style, inviting the audience to appreciate the beauty and depth of this music.
Arghand's tale, written in exile, may be rooted in historical reality. Rare whispers persist of musicians from Kharabat daring to love women of higher social standing, only to face brutal reprisal. Theirs was a precarious existence, labeled as mere entertainers, or worse, سازنده "zanenda," a term dripping with disdain. 
In Arghand's hands, this becomes a haunting elegy for a vanishing world where music once soared, now echoing only in the memories of ghosts. They serenaded celebrations yet remained outcasts, forever tethered to the threshold, their melodies fading into the encroaching silence.
Arghand's use of language and narrative style, with its lyrical prose and evocative descriptions, enhances the emotional impact of the story and invites the reader to immerse themselves in the world of Kharabat and Kabul's inflicted hardboiled society.

‎ہور وی نِیواں ہو، فقیرا 
O Seeker, Bow your head down even further in humility
‎اُچّا سرُو غرُور میں
There is great pleasure in holding the head high in arrogance
‎کدی نہ پَھل پائے، فقیرا
O Seeker, But, that pleasure will never be fulfilling
‎ہور وی نیواں ہو، فقیرا 
O Seeker, Bow your head down even further in humility
‎پائے گا دیدار صاحب دا
One day you will be bestowed with His presence
‎ہور وی نِیواں ہو
Bow your head down even further in humility
Ka’afii of Shah Hussain (R.A)
I remember Abba reciting it in front of me when I used to complain back in my school days that many of my classmates took my notebooks all the time when I didn't want to give it to them and was forced to do so.
Abba told me that it was not a big deal if I was the one who was giving it because it’s an attribute that shows your humbleness which should be the most important part of one’s nature because too much pride can make me snobbish.
At that time, this was a bit too complex for me but I only remembered that it made me believe that helping others isn’t a bad thing, but if it brings smile on someone’s faces or relieves someone’s pain, then it’s an amazing thing. I remember repeating these strangle attractive lines times and again, but never understanding the true meaning behind them. Now that I get to the true meaning behind this, I am wondering how people conveniently forget humility and kindness once they achieve success. Maybe this can be a beautiful reminder for all that no matter what, kindness is the most important thing to exhibit whether it’s rewarding or not because in the end, Allah SWT does reward you for it.
