"The world is a dream, and we are the dreamers. Wake up from your sleep and see the reality."
"Many have died; you also will die. The drum of death is being beaten."
"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 true ascetic is he who has conquered his desires, and has found peace within."
"What, then, O friend, are you searching for like a fool? The object of your quest is within you, as the oil is in the sesame seed."
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.
