As much as his poems are searching for a new place, they are also establishing a new place. The rebellion expressed in Shahajinde's poetry is not violent, but challenging this system with the self-sufficiency of existence and the meaningful confidence given by the soil here. Shahajinde's poems in Nidharmi (निधर्मी) and Adam (आदम) collections challenge the system that has made life difficult for the Muslims here and its history and present.
