Tagore, Rabindranath, 1861-1941

"Songs of Kabir"


I am far from none: I am near to none.
I shall go neither to hell nor to heaven.
I do all works; yet I am apart from all works.
Few comprehend my meaning: he who can comprehend it, he sits
unmoved.
Kab?r seeks neither to establish nor to destroy.

III. 69. satta n?m hai sab ten ny?r?
The true Name is like none other name!
The distinction of the Conditioned from the Unconditioned is but
a word:
The Unconditioned is the seed, the Conditioned is the flower and
the fruit.
Knowledge is the branch, and the Name is the root.
Look, and see where the root is: happiness shall be yours when
you come to the root.
The root will lead you to the branch, the leaf, the flower, and
the fruit:
It is the encounter with the Lord, it is the attainment of bliss,
it is the reconciliation of the Conditioned and the
Unconditioned.

III. 74. pratham ek jo ?pai ?p
In the beginning was He alone, sufficient unto Himself: the
formless, colourless, and unconditioned Being.
