More quotes by Kabir
But if a mirror ever makes you sad you should know that it does not know you.
Kabir
The instruction of the foolish is a waste of knowledge soap cannot wash charcoal white.
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
The stone neither speaks nor gives anything. Therefore its service is fruitless and its worship is of no avail.
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
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
Wear a crown of flowers on your head, let its roots reach your heart
Kabir
As the river surrenders itself to the ocean, what is inside me moves inside you.
Kabir
Admire the diamond that can bear the hits of a hammer. Many deceptive preachers, when critically examined, turn out to be false.
Kabir
Be quiet in your mind, quiet in your senses, and also quiet in your body. Then, when all these are quiet, don't do anything. In that state truth will reveal itself to you.
Kabir
The Lord is in me, the Lord is in you,as life is in every seed, put false pride away and seek the Lord within.
Kabir
All know that the drop merges into the ocean but few know that the ocean merges into the drop.
Kabir
Wherever you are is the entry point.
Kabir
The apple blossom exists to create fruit when that comes, the petal falls.
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. I laugh when I hear that people go on pilgrimage to find God.
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
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
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
