Faisal, a poet and author of "Je Pak Madiney Jato," creates a nourishing environment for inner thoughts on spirituality and individual experiences of faith and devotion. Almost like nature, Faisal's poetry flutters above the canvas of religious and cultural heritage, in turn encasing the trauma relating to the act of faith from emotional agonies. Faisal's thoughts create sympathy for mortal souls who, through some act of spirituality, would recover solace and embrace infinite Upper Powers. The themes of longing for the personal and communal spiritual expression gain maximum clarity when expressed in the traditional forms of Gojri Geet.
