More quotes by Kabir
The stone neither speaks nor gives anything. Therefore its service is fruitless and its worship is of no avail.
Kabir
Go over and over your beads, paint weird designs on your forehead, wear your hear matted, long, and ostentatious, but when deep inside you there is a loaded gun, how can you have God?
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
Be quiet in your mind, quiet in your senses, and also quiet in your body. Then, when all these are quiet, don't do anything. In that state truth will reveal itself to you.
Kabir
The Lord is in me, the Lord is in you,as life is in every seed, put false pride away and seek the Lord within.
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
Though One Brahman is the Cause of the Many. ... Behold but One in all things it is the second that leads you astray.
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
Now I have no caste, no creed, I am no more what I am!
Kabir
Do what you do with another human being, but never put them out of your heart.
Kabir
If you don't break your ropes while you're alive, do you think ghosts will do it after?
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
But if a mirror ever makes you sad you should know that it does not know you.
Kabir
My heart is so intoxicated with love that I have no wish to speak.
Kabir
Listen to me brother! bring the vision of the Beloved in your heart
Kabir
The savor of wandering in the ocean of deathless life has rid me of all my asking: As the tree is in the seed, so all diseases are in this asking.
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
As the river surrenders itself to the ocean, what is inside me moves inside you.
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
