Do not go to the garden of flowers! O friend! go not there; In your body is the garden of flowers. Take your seat on the thousand petals of the lotus, and there gaze on the infinite beauty.
KABIRDo not go to the garden of flowers! O friend! go not there; In your body is the garden of flowers. Take your seat on the thousand petals of the lotus, and there gaze on the infinite beauty.
KABIRBe strong then, and enter into your own body; there you have a solid place for your feet.
KABIRSing such a song with all of your heart that you’ll never have to sing again.
KABIRWhen the flower opens, the bees will come.
KABIRThe apple blossom exists to create fruit; when that comes, the petal falls.
KABIRDo not keep the slanderer away, treat him with affection and honor: Body and soul, he scours all clean, babbling about this and that.
KABIRPath presupposes distance; If He be near, no path needest thou at all. Verily it maketh me smile To hear of a fish in water athirst!
KABIRI laugh when I hear the fish in the water is thirsty.
KABIRForgiveness is a game only saints play Kabir.
KABIRPlunge into the truth, find out who the Teacher is, Believe in the Great Sound!
KABIRAs long as a human being worries about when he will die, and what he has that is his, all of his works are zero. When affection for the I-creature and what it owns is dead, then the work of the Teacher is over.
KABIRJust throw away all thoughts of imaginary things, and stand firm in that which you are.
KABIRNada is found within. It is a music without strings which plays in the body. It penetrates the inner and outer and leads you away from illusion.
KABIRThere’s a moon in my body, but I can’t see it! A moon and a sun. A drum never touched by hands, beating, and I can’t hear it!
KABIRI went in search of a bad person; I found none as I, seeing myself, found me the worst.
KABIRThe world will die, but I shall not die.If God dies, then I will die;If he does not die, then why should I die?
KABIR
