More quotes by Kabir
Within the body there is played Music unending, though without stringed instruments That music of the Word pervades the entire creation Who listens to it is freed from all illusion
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
As the river surrenders itself to the ocean, what is inside me moves inside you.
Kabir

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

Student, tell me, what is God? He is the breath inside the breath.
Kabir
I do not quote from the scriptures I simply see what I see.
Kabir
The fish in the water that is thirsty needs serious professional counseling
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
Just throw away all thoughts of imaginary things, and stand firm in that which you are.
Kabir
My heart is so intoxicated with love that I have no wish to speak.
Kabir
A diamond was laying in the street covered with dirt. Many fools passed by. Someone who knew diamonds picked it up.
Kabir
When you feel most alive, find out why, This is one guest you won't greet twice.
Kabir
