He was buried in Kasur when he died in 1757. There is a clean and very huge veranda which leads to the Tomb of Baba Bulleh Shah as you enter the shrine. The ceiling of shrine is decorated with the verses of Bulleh Shah in elegant calligraphy.
Amongst Urdu poets, Bulleh Shah lived 400 miles away from Mir Taqi Mir (1723–1810) of Agra. Bulleh Shah practised the Sufi tradition of Punjabi poetry .
The verse form Bulleh Shah which is mainly involved is the Kafi, popular in Western Punjabi and Sindhi poetry. Many people have put his Kafis to music, from humble street-singers to renowned Sufi singers like Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Pathanay Khan, Abida Parveen, the Waddali Brothers and Sain Zahoor, from the synthesised techno qawwali remixes of UK-based Asian artists to the Pakistani rock band Junoon.
In the 1990s, Junoon, a rock band from Pakistan, furnished his poems "Bullah Ki Jaana" and "Aleph" ("Ilmon Bas Kareen O Yaar"). In 2004, Indian musician Rabbi Shergill turned the abstruse metaphysical poem "Bullah Ki Jaana" into a rock/fusion song in his debut album "Rabbi"; the song was a chart-topper in 2005, helping the album to eventually sell over 10,000 copies and became immensely popular in India and Pakistan. The Wadali Bandhu, a Punjabi Sufi group from India, have also released a version of "Bullah Ki Jaana" in their album "Aa Mil Yaar... Call of the Beloved".
Also in 2016, a collaboration between two EDM artists (Headhunterz and Skytech) named "Kundalini" used words created by Bulleh Shah, as well as having the words Bulleh Shah in the lyrics.

That same year, Lamp'l created The joe gardener Show, a weekly podcast with a strong emphasis on organic gardening, growing food, and environmental stewardship. The podcast often features expert guests in the gardening, horticulture, farming, and green living industry. He is the author of two books, The Green Gardener's Guide and Over the Fence with joe gardener.

In 1983 Lamp'l graduated from Florida State University with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Business. He is also a University of Georgia Certified Landscape Professional and a Georgia Master Gardener.
With a degree and professional background in business and horticulture, Joe began working in horticultural consulting and design after college. At the same time, he used his own home garden and landscape to experiment with gardening methods and to grow food for his family. One day, a colleague of Lamp'l's had seen a casting call for a television host of a new gardening show starting up on the DIY Network. The show was to be all about how to grow food, from seed to harvest. Joe applied for the position, and after a lengthy national search for their host, was picked to host the new series, Fresh From the Garden. Fresh From the Garden was originally planned as a one-season, 26-episode series, but after its early success, the series was extended to three years and 52 episodes. Each show centered around teaching viewers how to grow one edible crop from seed to harvest. The show concluded after running out of plants to grow.
After Fresh From the Garden ended, Joe went on to host another show on PBS about gardening called GardenSMART from 2006 through 2008. Each episode featured Lamp'l as he toured public gardens all over the country. In 2009, Lamp'l began working on the creation of a new series with the goal of attracting brand new gardeners and inspiring existing gardeners with an emphasis on organic methods and environmental stewardship. In 2010 at the Philadelphia Flower Show, Joe premiered that new show and announced it would be called Growing a Greener World.
Agrivana® Media, LLC, is a company founded by Joe Lamp'l that is devoted to creating quality broadcast and online content to inspire and promote environmental stewardship around the world.

In 2018, Growing a Greener World was awarded a Daytime Emmy Award for episode 808, titled The Green Bronx Machine. That episode featured Stephen Ritz, a Brooklyn native and school teacher, who founded The Green Bronx Machine, a non-profit organization that seeks to build healthy, equitable, and resilient communities through inspired education, local food systems, and 21st Century workforce development.

Atlanta Student Movement
The Atlanta Student Movement was formed in February 1960 in Atlanta by students of the six colleges in the Atlanta University Center (AUC). The Committee on the Appeal for Human Rights (COAHR) led the Atlanta Student Movement. It was part of the Civil Rights Movement. Its goal was to end segregation, the laws that separated African-American people from white people. In Atlanta, and other places in the United States, segregation gave African-American people fewer rights than white people.
On February 3, 1960, Atlanta University Center (AUC) senior, Lonnie King, read about the sit-in at the Woolworth Store in downtown Greensboro, North Carolina. A sit-in is a kind of protest. People sit someplace and will not leave until they get what they want. The people sitting-in at the Woolworths store restaurant were African-American college students. They wanted to be able to eat at the store's restaurant along with white people. King also thought it was fair for African-American people in Atlanta to be able to eat at the same restaurants as white people. King talked to other students, Joseph Pierce and Julian Bond. They decided to organize a Student Movement in the four colleges at the Atlanta University Center. Their goal was to convince all restaurants in Atlanta to serve food to all people.
On February 5, 1960, approximately fifteen students attended the first meeting. The first sit-in did not have enough people. The students' universities called a meeting with the Atlanta University Center's college Presidents. Each president explained their opinion of the sit-in movement. The four presidents asked students not to have sit-ins. The presidents wanted lawyers to make changes by asking courts to force restaurants to change. They asked students to work hard on their school work. The presidents suggested the students write an advertisement for the newspapers about what they wanted restaurants to do. The presidents paid to put the advertisement in the newspaper.
Lonnie King asked Roslyn Pope, Morris Dillard, Albert Brinson, Julian Bond, and Charles Black to write the advertisement. It was called "An Appeal for Human Rights." It explained why it was bad for African-American people and white people to have different rights. It asked for changes. On March 9th, 1960, An Appeal for Human Rights was published as a full-page ad in Atlanta Constitution, Atlanta Journal, and Atlanta Daily World. It was also published in the New York Times, Harvard Crimson, and Nation magazine. New York Senator Jacob Javits read it out loud in Congress so that the words would be saved in the Congressional Record.
On March 16th, 1960, the representatives from all the colleges in the Atlanta University Center met. Students started a new group, called the "Committee on Appeal for Human Rights" (COHAR). All the students agreed to start a committee to lead the group. They also agreed that each college should have three students on the committee. The people on the committee were:
Lonnie King was the Chairman, or leader; John Mack was theCo-Chairman, or second leader.
The students wanted to make more changes. On March 15th, 1960, more than two hundred Atlanta University Center students had sit-ins. They went to eleven restaurants in downtown Atlanta. Seventy-seven students were arrested for sitting-in. The six students who signed "An Appeal for Human Rights" were also arrested.
After their summer vacation, students started protesting again. Lonnie King was still the Chair of COHAR. Herschelle Sullivan was the new Co-Chair of COHAR. She was studying in France when COHAR started. In September she returned to Spelman. She wanted to protest, too.
In fall of 1960, Lonnie King and Herschelle Sullivan requested that Dr. Martin Luther King protest with them. There was a presidential election that year. John F. Kennedy and Richard Nixon both wanted to be president of the United States. But neither Nixon nor Kennedy was talking about the African-American student protests. They believed that Dr. King could help get attention from Nixon or Kennedy.
On October 19th, 1960, hundreds of students had sit-ins in Atlanta restaurants. Dr. King went with them. The police arrested many students. The police also arrested Dr. King. The next day, even more people protested. Three days later, Atlanta Mayor Hartsfield met with COHAR. COHAR asked everyone to stop protesting. The students got out of jail. The students, Mayor Hartsfield, and restaurant owners tried to talk to each other about segregation.
