More quotes by Kabir
When you feel most alive, find out why, This is one guest you won't greet twice.
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 Beloved is inside you and also inside me. You know the tree is hidden inside the seed. Let your arrogance go. None of us has gone far. Inside love there is more power than we realize.
Kabir
Listen to your own Self. If you listen to that Self within, then you find the Truth.
Kabir
When the flower opens, the bees will come.
Kabir
Just throw away all thoughts of imaginary things, and stand firm in that which you are.
Kabir
I felt in need of a great pilgrimage, so I sat still for three days and God came to me.
Kabir
A diamond was laying in the street covered with dirt. Many fools passed by. Someone who knew diamonds picked it up.
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
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
Reading books everyone died, none became any wise. One who reads the word of Love, only becomes wise.
Kabir
All know that the drop merges into the ocean but few know that the ocean merges into the drop.
Kabir
I sell mirrors in the city of the blind.
Kabir
If you don't break your ropes while you're alive, do you think ghosts will do it after?
Kabir
As the river surrenders itself to the ocean, what is inside me moves inside you.
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
Do not praise yourself not slander others: There are still many days to go and any thing could happen.
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
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
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
