The poetry of Lal Ded (c. 1300–1370), who was known as Lalleshvari or Lalla Arifa, has not yet received much attention outside Kashmir. This is in spite of the fact that Lal Ded played a crucial role in the emergence of the modern Kashmiri language. As the first poet of Kashmiri literature, she created a style called vakh which until today is one of the classical forms of poetical expression of the Kashmiris. This article is intended as a survey of the published and unpublished written sources and the living oral transmission of Lal Ded’s vakhs. It also presents the characteristic features of her teachings with the intention to examine to which mystical traditions of India she is related. Finally, her proximity to siddhas and nathas, who played an important role in the emergence of vernacular languages of Northern India, is indicated.

The present article is an attempt at understanding the various stages of artistic expressions through which Indian mystic poetry has passed and argues that this art form has not become stagnant or dead. It aims to show that it continues to flourish and evolve. It also focuses on a period of transition where a new poetry seems to appear against the background of conventional poetry. This article deals with the concerned question from a critical point of view and clearly marks the various phases of its development, divided into three different stages. It explains that each phase, though complete in itself, serves as a link to the following one. The utmost care has been taken to present the arguments related to mystic poetry in as clear a manner as possible so as to remove the misperceptions that prevails about it. Some important poets like Maithili Sharan Gupt, Mahadevi Verma and Harivansh Rai Bachchan have been discussed in this article in order to have a synoptic view of growth and evolution of Indian mystic poetry. In short, an attempt has been made to present a journey of Indian mystic poetry from the 19th century to the post-Independence period.
