Abstract
This paper contains a discourse based on the two mystical aspects of G. Allana’s poetry- the Pantheism and Immanentism. These two aspects have been the subject matter of the mystic thought. The followers of the Sufi path are classified in these two categories of Sufism. Some Sufis consider that Pantheism is the “unity of existence” while others consider that ‘Immanentism’ is the ‘unity of existence’ whereas pantheism ‘manifestation of existence’. Thus Immanentism and Pantheism are the substitutes of the Arabic Sufi terms- Wahadat-ul-Wujood and Wahdatul Shahu respectively. Though both the aspects outwardly stand different and opposite, they to great extent stand the two sides of one coin within the systems of a monotheistic religion. The polytheistic religion having the concept of various deities, go with some other bargain. The entire discourse is based upon the concept that the reality be one only, one has to realize the Truth no matter if it has various manifestation and focus. This research study tries to make this difference clear in the perspective of an analysis and evaluation of G. Allana’s mystical poems. The conclusion is given at the end.
