I laugh when I hear that the fish in the water is thirsty. I laugh when I hear that people go on pilgrimage to find God.
KabirSeeking Why run around sprinkling holy water? There's an ocean inside you, and when you're ready you'll drink.
KabirA diamond was laying in the street covered with dirt. Many fools passed by. Someone who knew diamonds picked it up.
KabirI talk to my inner lover, and I say, why such rush? We sense that there is some sort of spirit that loves birds and animals and the ants- perhaps the same one who gave a radiance to you in your mother's womb. Is it logical you would be walking around entirely orphaned now? The truth is you turned away yourself, and decided to go into the dark alone. Now you are tangled up in others, and have forgotten what you once knew, and that's why everything you do has some weird sense of failure in it.
Kabir
