Lalleshwari
was a disciple of the Shaivite guru Siddha Srikantha (Sed Bayu). She
followed the mystic tradition of Shaivism in Kashmir, which was known as
Trika.
The leading Kashmiri Sufi figure, Sheikh Noor-ud-din Wali, also known as Nooruddin Rishi or Nunda Rishi, was highly influenced by Lal Ded.One Kashmiri folk story recounts that as a baby, Nunda Rishi refused to be breast-fed by his mother. It was Lal Ded who breast-fed him.
Lal Ded and her mystic musings continue to have a deep impact on the psyche of Kashmiri common man.
