Image
I went in search of a bad person I found none as I, seeing myself, found me the worst.
Kabir
Image
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
Image
What is found now is found then. If you find nothing now, you will simply end up with an apartment in the City of Death.
Kabir
Image
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
Image
Listen to your own Self. If you listen to that Self within, then you find the Truth.
Kabir
Image
The apple blossom exists to create fruit when that comes, the petal falls.
Kabir
Image
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
Image
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
Image
Love does not grow on trees or brought in the market, but if one wants to be LOVED one must first know how to give (unconditional) LOVE.
Kabir
Image
Now I have no caste, no creed, I am no more what I am!
Kabir
Image
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
Image
Do you believe there is some place that will make thesoul less thirsty? In that great absence you will find nothing.
Kabir
Image
Wherever you are is the entry point.
Kabir
Image
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
Image
Just throw away all thoughts of imaginary things, and stand firm in that which you are.
Kabir
Image
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
Image
Listen to me brother! bring the vision of the Beloved in your heart
Kabir
Image
The flute of the infinite is played without ceasing, and its sound is love.
Kabir
Image
The Beloved is inside you and also inside me. You know the tree is hidden inside the seed. Let your arrogance go. None of us has gone far. Inside love there is more power than we realize.
Kabir
Image
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
