- O SERVANT, where dost thou seek Me?Lo! I am beside thee.I am neither
in temple nor in mosque: I am neither in Kaaba nor in Kailash:Neither
am I in rites and ceremonies, nor in Yoga and renunciation.If thou art
a true seeker, thou shalt at once see Me: thou shalt meet Me in a moment
of time.Kabîr says, "O Sadhu! God is the breath of all breath."
Kabir
Quote -
- If the Guru be blind the disciple is born blind: When the blind lead
the blind both fall into well!
Kabir
Quote
- Man is but a doll made from five elements, to whom a human's name
is given ... We are but guest of four days, yet we take up so much room!
Kabir
Quote
- Do not praise yourself not slander others: There are still many days
to go and any thing could happen!
Kabir
Quote
- Him whom I went out to seek, I found just where I was: He now has
become myself whom before I called `Another'!
Kabir
Quote
- Are you looking for me? I am in the next seat.My shoulder is against
yours.you will not find me in the stupas, not in Indian shrinerooms,
nor in synagogues, nor in cathedrals:not in masses, nor kirtans, not
in legs windingaround your own neck, nor in eating nothing but vegetables.When
you really look for me, you will see me instantly —you will find
me in the tiniest house of time.
Kabir
Quote
- Do not go to the garden of flowers!O friend! go not there;In your
body is the garden of flowers.Take your seat on the thousand petals
of the lotus, and there gaze on the infinite beauty.
Kabir
Quote
- The effulgance of the supreme Being is beyond the imagination: Ineffable
is His beauty, to see it is the only `proof'.
