More from Kabir
"The wise man does not boast of his knowledge, nor does he hide his ignorance."
"I am not in the temple, nor in the mosque, nor in the Kaaba, nor in Kailash. I am not in rites or ceremonies, nor in yoga or renunciation."
"I went in search of a bad person; I found none as I, seeing myself, found me the worst."
"The true ascetic is he who has conquered his desires, and has found peace within."
"The drop is in the ocean and the ocean is in the drop."
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.
