More quotes by Kabir
I do not quote from the scriptures I simply see what I see.
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
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
The flute of the infinite is played without ceasing, and its sound is love.
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
Don't open your diamonds in a vegetable market. Tie them in bundle and keep them in your heart, and go your own way.
Kabir
Do not praise yourself not slander others: There are still many days to go and any thing could happen.
Kabir
A learned man's knowledge will be of no avail to him if he doesn't have control over his tongue
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
It is the spirit of the quest which helps
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
Listen to me brother! bring the vision of the Beloved in your heart
Kabir
I sell mirrors in the city of the blind.
Kabir
The fish in the water that is thirsty needs serious professional counseling
Kabir
The stone neither speaks nor gives anything. Therefore its service is fruitless and its worship is of no avail.
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
Admire the diamond that can bear the hits of a hammer. Many deceptive preachers, when critically examined, turn out to be false.
Kabir
If you don't break your ropes while you're alive, do you think ghosts will do it after?
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
Just throw away all thoughts of imaginary things, and stand firm in that which you are.
Kabir
