मथुरा भावै द्वारिका , भावे जो जगन्नाथ। साधु संग हरि भजन बिनु , कछु न आवे हाथ॥ 224॥
— Kabir
Meaning
Mathura is beloved by Dwarka, and Dwarka is beloved by Jagannath. Without the company of saints and devotion to Hari, nothing is gained.
Explanation
This couplet beautifully uses the relationship between holy cities like Mathura, Dwarka, and Jagannath as a profound metaphor. It illustrates that even the grandest worldly places are ultimately bound by devotion. Kabir emphasizes that worldly destinations are meaningless without the spiritual anchors: the guidance of saints and the continuous remembrance of Hari. He teaches us that true spiritual attainment requires both company and pure devotion.
