KABIRThe essence of life is in remembering God.
KABIROne love it is that pervades the whole world, few there are who know it fully: They are blind who hope to see it by the light of reason, that reason which is the cause of separation – The house of reason is very far away!
KABIRAs long as I talked unceasingly about the Lord,The Lord stayed away, kept at a distance.But when I silenced my mouth, sat very stillAnd fixed my mind at the doorway of the Lord,I was linked to the music of the Word,And all my talking came to an end.
KABIRGod, provide me with enough sustenance that my family is taken care of, that neither I remain hungry, nor does my guest go unfed.
KABIRIf you haven’t experienced it, it’s not true.
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.
KABIRReading books everyone died, none became any wise. One who reads the word of Love, only becomes wise.
KABIRThe Lord is in me, the Lord is in you,as life is in every seed, put false pride away and seek the Lord within.
KABIRJust throw away all thoughts of imaginary things, and stand firm in that which you are.
KABIRBe strong then, and enter into your own body; there you have a solid place for your feet.
KABIRLift the veil that obscures the heart, and there you will find what you are looking for.
KABIRThe Beloved is inside you and also inside me. You know the tree is hidden inside the seed. Let your arrogance go. None of us has gone far. Inside love there is more power than we realize.
KABIRI laugh when I hear that the fish in the water is thirsty. You don’t grasp the fact that what is most alive of all is inside your own house; and so you walk from one holy city to the next with a confused look!
KABIRListen to me brother! bring the vision of the Beloved in your heart.
KABIRAll darkness vanished, when I saw the Lamp within my heart.
KABIRIt is the spirit of the quest which helps.
