More quotes by Kabir
The fish in the water that is thirsty needs serious professional counseling
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
But if a mirror ever makes you sad you should know that it does not know you.
Kabir
God, provide me with enough sustenance that my family is taken care of, that neither I remain hungry, nor does my guest go unfed.
Kabir
Only in the heart can one experience the divine presence of truth.
Kabir
I laugh when I hear that the fish in the water is thirsty. You wander restlessly from forest to forest while the Reality is within your own dwelling.
Kabir
The apple blossom exists to create fruit when that comes, the petal falls.
Kabir
The stone neither speaks nor gives anything. Therefore its service is fruitless and its worship is of no avail.
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
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
When you feel most alive, find out why, This is one guest you won't greet twice.
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
I sell mirrors in the city of the blind.
Kabir
Admire the diamond that can bear the hits of a hammer. Many deceptive preachers, when critically examined, turn out to be false.
Kabir
When the Guest is being searched for, it is the intensity of the longing for the Guest that does all the work. Look at me, and you will see a slave of that intensity.
Kabir
Path 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!
Kabir
Nada 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.
Kabir
Listen to me brother! bring the vision of the Beloved in your heart
Kabir
I felt in need of a great pilgrimage, so I sat still for three days and God came to me.
Kabir
I've burned my own house down, the torch is in my hand.Now I'll burn down the house of anyone who wants to follow me.
Kabir
