नहीं शीतल है चन्द्रमा , हिंम नहीं शीतल होय। कबीरा शीतल सन्त जन , नाम सनेही सोय॥ 72॥
— Kabir
Meaning
The moonlight is not cool, nor is the ice cool. Kabir says that the coolness resides in the saintly person and the loving name.
Explanation
Kabir uses the metaphor of moonlight and ice to teach that external sources of peace are only superficial. He suggests that relying on temporary physical sensations or worldly pleasures will never bring lasting calm. True, deep coolness and spiritual peace, according to Kabir, reside within the loving saintly spirit and the divine name itself.
