More quotes by Kabir
When you feel most alive, find out why, This is one guest you won't greet twice.
Kabir
Listen to me brother! bring the vision of the Beloved in your heart
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

Kabir
My heart is so intoxicated with love that I have no wish to speak.
Kabir
Plunge into the truth, find out who the Teacher is, Believe in the Great Sound!
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
If you don't break your ropes while you're alive, do you think ghosts will do it after?
Kabir
Listen to your own Self. If you listen to that Self within, then you find the Truth.
Kabir
Wherever you are is the entry point.
Kabir
The essence of life is in remembering God.
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
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
Look at you, you madman! Screaming you are thirsty and dying in a desert, when all around you there is nothing but water!
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
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
The stone neither speaks nor gives anything. Therefore its service is fruitless and its worship is of no avail.
Kabir
Do not praise yourself not slander others: There are still many days to go and any thing could happen.
Kabir
