More quotes by Kabir
Men have always looked before and after, and rebelled against the existing order. But for their divine discontent, men would not have been men, and there would have been no progress in human affairs.
Kabir
Though One Brahman is the Cause of the Many. ... Behold but One in all things it is the second that leads you astray.
Kabir
When you feel most alive, find out why, This is one guest you won't greet twice.
Kabir
If you don't break your ropes while you're alive, do you think ghosts will do it after?
Kabir
There is no river at all, and no boat, and no boatman. There is not even a rope to tow the boat, and no one to pull it. There is no earth, no sky, no time, no thing, no shore, no ford!
Kabir
Do not praise yourself not slander others: There are still many days to go and any thing could happen.
Kabir
Just throw away all thoughts of imaginary things, and stand firm in that which you are.
Kabir
Music without words means leaving behind the mind. And leaving behind the mind is meditation. Meditation returns you to the source. And the source of all is sound.
Kabir
Do what you do with another human being, but never put them out of your heart.
Kabir
I 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!
Kabir
I don't think there is such a thing as an intelligent mega-rich person. For who with a fine mind can look out upon this world and hoard what can nourish a thousand souls.
Kabir
The apple blossom exists to create fruit when that comes, the petal falls.
Kabir
Wear a crown of flowers on your head, let its roots reach your heart
Kabir
What is found now is found then. If you find nothing now, you will simply end up with an apartment in the City of Death.
Kabir
My heart is so intoxicated with love that I have no wish to speak.
Kabir
The essence of life is in remembering God.
Kabir
I went in search of a bad person I found none as I, seeing myself, found me the worst.
Kabir
Do not keep the slanderer away, treat him with affection and honor: Body and soul, he scours all clean, babbling about this and that.
Kabir
The instruction of the foolish is a waste of knowledge soap cannot wash charcoal white.
Kabir
Plunge into the truth, find out who the Teacher is, Believe in the Great Sound!
Kabir
