More from Kabir
"The true pilgrimage is to go within, and to find the divine abode in one's own heart."
"Real wealth is measured by the silence after laughter ends."
"The path to God is not in going to Mecca or Varanasi, but in looking within."
"You don't grasp the fact that what is most alive of all is inside your own house; and you walk from one holy city to the next with a confused look!"
"Kabir stands in the market, wishing all well. Friends with none, enemies with none."
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.
