हीरा वहाँ न खोलिये , जहाँ कुंजड़ों की हाट। बांधो चुप की पोटरी , लागहु अपनी बाट॥ 35॥
— Kabir
Meaning
The Shayar advises that one should not reveal their true feelings or heart in a place where only foolish or common people gather. Instead, one should remain silent and focus on their own path.
Explanation
Kabir advises caution regarding where one shares their true heart. The 'market of monkeys' represents a chaotic, superficial gathering where genuine connection is impossible. Instead of revealing your inner self, one must guard their deepest thoughts and emotions, maintaining a silent resolve to walk their own path. This couplet emphasizes wisdom over impulsive display.
