This week, we are drawn into the voice of Sheikh Farid, the 12th-century Sufi mystic whose words carry the ache of longing and the sweetness of surrender. Known as Fariduddin Ganj-i-Shakar—Treasure of Sweetness—his verses, preserved in the Guru Granth Sahib, cross every boundary, inviting us to remember what is essential: to love fully, to live honestly, to stay close to the One.
