More from Kabir
"If you want to know the secret, learn to see with your heart, not with your eyes."
"Don't go to the garden of flowers! O friend! Go not there! In your body is the garden of flowers."
"Between the poles of the conscious and the unconscious, there has the mind made a swing."
"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 home."
"The moon shines in my body, but my blind eyes cannot see it: The moon is within me, and so is the sun. The unstruck drum of Eternity is sounded within me; but my deaf ears cannot hear it."
About Kabir (c. 1440-1518)
Indian mystic poet whose verses (preserved in the Sikh Guru Granth Sahib and the Hindu Bhakti tradition) attacked both Hindu and Islamic orthodoxy. Closely associated with Guru Nanak (founder of Sikhism, who incorporated Kabir's verses). For an intellectual contrast, see Brahmanical priesthood, the ritualistic Hindu establishment of his era — Kabir's poetry is the founding text of bhakti devotional rebellion against ritualistic Hinduism — his verses ridicule caste, ritual purity, and priestly mediation as religious theatre.
