More from Kabir
"I laugh when I hear that people go on pilgrimage to find God."
"If I say, 'He is One,' it is a lie; if I say, 'He is two,' I am guilty of slander. Kabir knows Him as He is, but cannot express Him."
"The fish in the water is thirsty."
"I am looking for the one who is looking for me."
"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.
