A living symbol of Kashmir and the guiding light of its people, Nund Reshi (RA) continues to exert enormous influence on the socio, cultural and religious beliefs of the people of Kashmir. His thoughts have moulded the minds of generations for more than six centuries, establishing a culture of utmost religious toleration, brotherhood, compassion with an abiding faith in the omnipresence of God and profound love for holy Messenger of Islam ( SAW).
