NEW REVOLUTION OF LOVE...Our only message is the message of Universal
Brotherhood, of the belief in one God and the oneness of all mankind.
 “The dream, the wondrous dream
 Of a world without a seam!
 Man being one, as God is one,
 Brothers brother and Fathers son,
 All Earth, all Heaven, without a seam.”
 
 Thousands
of Sufi Saints in the past several centuries have spread the light of
Sufism in Kashmir.  Their sacred thoughts and deeds illuminated
the land and the minds of the people.  They had sown the seeds of
harmony, humanity, compassion, love and peace.
 
 It is the need
of the hour to spread the luminosity of Sufi thoughts across the globe
to overcome this era of distress. The invaluable gems of Sufism gifted
to the Valley of Kashmir by the Sufi Saints were not meant for the
People of Kashmir alone. They were predestined to be distributed
throughout the world to enrich the souls of all nations.
 We started
Kashmir Sufism Society to distribute the wealth of Sufism and endow the
world with the precious gifts of love, peace and harmony. We wish to
make this world an Abode of Love.
