When Sanai was young, he served as a court poet in Garseni Dynasty and served King bahram Shah (118 to 152 reigned). Later, as the king of Valencia conquered India, he met the Sufi mystic Raikul on his way to the army. Sanai, who didn't want to stand aside, was deeply moved by this. He was voluntarily accepted as a disciple by Lecouls and abandoned his secular identity. King Valencia offered to exchange his half dynasty and daughter for Sanai's change of heart, but was rejected.

After studying in Lecouls for a period of time, Sanai embarked on a journey alone. After many years, he went back to visit Master and presented his creative work "The Garden of Truth" on his way home.

Sanay's favorite work is The Garden of Truth, which he dedicated to his master Lakul. The content expresses the proverbs of divinity, love, truth and the mystery of life in the form of exquisite and beautiful poems. After the publication of Garden, it was widely read by people of all races, religions and cultures, and was regarded as a classic by Sufi school of Islam.

On the other hand, the garden is also a masterpiece of Persian literature. It is generally believed that Sanai was the first poet to write in the form of Kasida, Ghazal and Masna.
