Kabir
The man who is kind and who practices righteousness, who remains passive against the affairs of the world, who considers all creatures on earth as his own self, he attains the Immortal Being the true God is ever with him.
Kabir
I sell mirrors in the city of the blind.
Kabir
Listen to me brother! bring the vision of the Beloved in your heart
Kabir
