There is nothing but water in the holy pools. I know, I have been swimming there. All the gods sculpted of wood or ivory canโt say a word. I know, I have been crying out to them. The Sacred Books of the East are nothing but words. I looked through their covers one day sideways. What Kabir talks of is only what he has lived through. If you have not lived through something, it is not true.
KabirIf you want the truth, I'll tell you the truth. Listen to the secret sound, the real sound, which is inside you.
KabirThe external forces conceal from the eyes the deep meaning of existence; True faith resides in the heart.
Kabir
