Ghulam Jilani Rohataki is an eminent Sufi saint. His works indicate further permeation of Hindu thought in Sufism. Bulleh Shah accepted almost all Hindu ideas which were held in great esteem at his time except that of transmigration of soul. This Ghulam Jilani Rohtaki accepted. He takes inspiration from the Hindu Vedanta, and Yoga Shastras. His Jog-Sagar is replete with the Hindu religious beliefs, terminology and references.
