Aisi vani boliye, mann ka aapa khoye. Auron ko sheetal kare, aaphun sheetal hoye. (Speak such words that your ego is lost. They cool others, and you yourself become cool.)

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.
