More quotes by Kabir
Wear a crown of flowers on your head, let its roots reach your heart
Kabir
If you don't break your ropes while you're alive, do you think ghosts will do it after?
Kabir
As 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.
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
When you feel most alive, find out why, This is one guest you won't greet twice.
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
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
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
Listen to your own Self. If you listen to that Self within, then you find the Truth.
Kabir
A learned man's knowledge will be of no avail to him if he doesn't have control over his tongue
Kabir
Now I have no caste, no creed, I am no more what I am!
Kabir
Love does not grow on trees or brought in the market, but if one wants to be LOVED one must first know how to give (unconditional) LOVE.
Kabir
Wherever you are is the entry point.
Kabir
I do not quote from the scriptures I simply see what I see.
Kabir
My heart is so intoxicated with love that I have no wish to speak.
Kabir
Reading books everyone died, none became any wise. One who reads the word of Love, only becomes wise.
Kabir
Look at you, you madman! Screaming you are thirsty and dying in a desert, when all around you there is nothing but water!
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
Go over and over your beads, paint weird designs on your forehead, wear your hear matted, long, and ostentatious, but when deep inside you there is a loaded gun, how can you have God?
Kabir
I felt in need of a great pilgrimage, so I sat still for three days and God came to me.
Kabir
