सुमिरन में मन लाइए , जैसे नाद कुरंग। कहैं कबीर बिसरे नहीं , प्रान तजे तेहि संग॥
— Kabir
Meaning

Bring your mind into remembrance, like the sound of a flute. Kabir says that you should not forget (or remember) even after leaving your body.

Explanation

This beautiful couplet from Kabir reminds us that our mind needs to be fixed on something pure and constant. The Shayar uses the metaphor of the flute's sound (nad kurang) to describe this state of remembrance—a sound that is everywhere and never fades. It’s a call for an inner state of continuous devotion, not just a ritual. Kabir emphasizes that this remembrance must be so profound that it remains with us even after the physical body departs. It is a plea for eternal connection.
