More quotes by 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

Kabir

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
As the river surrenders itself to the ocean, what is inside me moves inside you.
Kabir
Do not keep the slanderer away, treat him with affection and honor: Body and soul, he scours all clean, babbling about this and that.

The flute of the infinite is played without ceasing, and its sound is love.

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
