Launching an APP: “Lal Vakhs”
It brings me immense joy to announce the launch of our new app, “Lal Vakhs,”
dedicated to the young Kashmiri Pandit generation and all migrants. This app is
a tribute to our rich culture and heritage, ensuring it does not fade into
obscurity.
As a Diwali gift to everyone, whether in India or abroad, “Lal Vakhs” is a
global offering that transcends caste, creed, and colour. In celebrating the
700th anniversary of the revered saint poetess Lal Ded, I was inspired by the
many inquiries about how to read and learn these profound vakhs.
Over the past eight years, I have meticulously collected and curated these
vakhs, culminating in the publication of my book, Lal Ded of Kashmir:
Saint Poetess - A Catalogue of Lal Vakhs. However, this project did
not stop there. My team and I have continued to enhance the book, ensuring each
vakh is accompanied by an English poetic narration. We have made every effort
to preserve the spirit and meaning of the original vakhs, despite the
occasional variations in wording across different sources.
The app features 320 vakhs from the great saint poetess Lal Ded, along with
a range of user-friendly features including Home, Title Search, Vakhs, Ask Lal
Ded, Videos, and more.
I wish you all joy and fulfilment as you explore the “Lal Vakhs” app!
