From the F is Fâkâh, fasting.
From the K is Kanāat, contentment.
From the R is Rizzāat, devotion.
Three qualities that all Fakirs should possess; and the formidable nature of the pursuit is somewhat tersely told in the following Punjabi lines:
Fakira. Fakiri dur hai
Jitna lumba Kujoor hai
Chur jai tho piay
Prami. Rus
Girjai tochuk nā choorhai.
