Abstract
"Mysticism is the theory or belief that man can intuitively
know God or religious truth, through the inward perception of the
mind, a more immediate and direct method than that of ordinary
understanding or sense perception; any seeking to solve the
mysteries of existence by internal illumination on ideas that have no
foundation in human experience".
The researchers investigate roots of this theology in the
various philosophical thoughts. With reference to Islam, this
theology affected Balochi literatures as well. The aim of this paper is
to determine and discuss the roots from which this theology came to
Balochistan, and how this affected Balochi and Brahui literatures. It
will also be discussed the kind of literature created under the caption
of mysticism in Balochi. This paper focuses on the history of
mysticism, Islamic mysticism, mysticism in the subcontinent and its
arrival in Balochistan. The paper will further discuss the
geographical and historical background and various aspects of the
subject. Furthermore, a brief introduction, biography of Balochi
mystical poets and their mystical thoughts will be discussed.
