KABIR'S POEMS
I
I. 13.
mo ko kah?n dh?nro bandeO 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.
Kab?r says, "O Sadhu! God is the breath of all breath."
II
I. 16.
Santan j?t na p?cho nirguniy?nIt is needless to ask of a saint the caste to which he belongs;
For the priest, the warrior.
