“Ages passed in spinning prayer beads, yet the heart's inclination hasn't changed. Let us abandon the heart's attachments and change the heart's beads.”
مالا پھیرتے یگ ہوئے، پر دل کا پھیر نہ ہوا۔ کر کا من کا ڈار دیں، من کا منکا پھیر۔
Kabir is yahan ek bahut gehra farq bata rahe hain, dost. Yeh mala sirf zahiri ibadat ki nishani hai jo hum saalon tak karte rehte hain, lekin dil ki fitrat mein koi tabdeeli nahi aati. Woh keh rahe hain ki asal tabdeeli hamare mann ke 'manak' mein honi chahiye, na ke sirf haathon ki mala mein. Iska matlab hai ke bhakti sirf cheezon ka khel nahi, balki dil ki sacchi gehraai ka mamla hai.
