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.
KabirAdmire the diamond that can bear the hits of a hammer. Many deceptive preachers, when critically examined, turn out to be false.
KabirI laugh when I hear that the fish in the water is thirsty. You wander restlessly from forest to forest while the Reality is within your own dwelling.
Kabir
