˹éÒ 49 - As the different streams having their sources in different places all mingle their water in the sea so, O Lord, the different paths which men take through different tendencies, various though they appear, crooked or straight, all lead to Thee!
˹éÒ 74 - ... either knowledge is not to be attained at all, or, if at all, after death. For then, and not till then, the soul will be in herself alone and without the body.
˹éÒ 108 - And being thence admonished to return to myself, I entered even into my inward self, Thou being my Guide: and able I was, for Thou wert become my Helper. And I entered and beheld with the eye of my soul, (such as it was,) above the same eye of my soul, above my mind, the Light Unchangeable.
˹éÒ 74 - For the body is a source of endless trouble to us by reason of the mere requirement of food...
˹éÒ 78 - Will you not allow that I have as much of the spirit of prophecy in me as the swans? For they, when they perceive that they must die, having sung all their life long, do then sing more lustily than ever, rejoicing in the thought that they are about to go away to the god whose ministers they are.
˹éÒ 60 - Sultans : i 0 Servant, where dost thou seek Me ? Lo ! I am beside thee. 1 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 slrnlt at once see Me : thou shalt meet Me in a moment of time. Kabir says, ' O Sadhu ! God is the breath of all breath.
˹éÒ 16 - Constantly regard the universe as one living being, having one substance and one soul; and observe how all things have reference to one perception, the perception of this one living being; and how all things act with one movement; and how all things are the cooperating causes of all things which exist; observe too the continuous spinning of the thread and the contexture of the web.
˹éÒ 75 - And thought is best when the mind is gathered into herself and none of these things trouble her — neither sounds nor sights nor pain nor any pleasure — when she has as little as possible to do with the body, and has no bodily sense or feeling, but is aspiring after being?
˹éÒ 227 - For there is a joy which is not given to the ungodly* but to those who love Thee for Thine own sake, whose joy Thou Thyself art.
˹éÒ 74 - Whence come wars, and fightings, and factions? Whence but from the body and the lusts of the body?
