Kabiira says that man is blind, even when calling out to the Guru. The Lord is upset, but the Guru's place is not the reason; the Guru is upset, but it is not the place.
Kabir here offers a profound lesson in self-realization. He suggests that even if a person constantly seeks guidance from the Guru, their own mind remains blind. The central message is that whether the Lord is upset or the Guru is upset, the fault does not lie with the place or the person. Instead, Kabir guides us to understand that the source of distress is always internal—it resides in our own confusion and ego.
