Unki Gali Mein Aana Jana — Nusrat Qawwali Coming and Going MP3
Unki Gali Mein Aana Jana — "coming and going in their alley" — extends the gali metaphor to describe the ongoing relationship of the devotee with the spiritual state of proximity: not a permanent arrival but a repeated return, a practice of coming and going that constitutes devotional life. He has a voice that can mesmerize audiences of all ages. He is one of the classic qawwals of history. He earned Pakistan an international name through his ever-new urdu qawwalis. The aana-jana (coming and going) describes the oscillation between states of closeness and distance that the sufi tradition treats as normal rather than as failure.

FAQ
Is the coming and going in this qawwali a failure or a feature of devotional life? A feature — the tradition is realistic about the oscillating nature of spiritual experience. The goal is not permanent arrival but increasing frequency and depth of the states of proximity.
Does this relate to the sufi concept of qabd and bast? Yes — qabd (contraction) and bast (expansion) are classical sufi terms for the alternating states of constriction and openness that characterize the devotional path. The aana-jana (coming and going) captures this oscillation.
Is this a companion piece to Unki Gali Mein? They share the same metaphorical territory and may be from the same recording session. Check the iRulz album notes for the specific relationship between the two pieces.
