Kabir

Kabir

Kabir
The instruction of the foolish is a waste of knowledge soap cannot wash charcoal white.
Kabir
Listen to me brother! bring the vision of the Beloved in your heart
Kabir
I do not quote from the scriptures I simply see what I see.
Kabir
Plunge into the truth, find out who the Teacher is, Believe in the Great Sound!

Reading books everyone died, none became any wise. One who reads the word of Love, only becomes wise.
