In This Body
Kabir was a 14th century Sufi mystic and poet from Northern India. Listen to what he has to stay about the body:
In This Body
In this body forests and hamlets, right here mountains and trees.
In this body gardens and groves, right here the one who waters them.
In this body gold and silver, right here the market spread out.
In this body diamonds and pearls, right here the one who tests them.
In this body seven oceans, right here rivers and streams.
In this body moon and sun, right here a million stars.
In this body lightening flashing, right here brilliance bursting.
In this body the unstruck sound roaring, streams of nectar pouring.
In this body the three worlds, right here the one who made them.
Kabir says, listen seekers: right here my own guru!
and yet another....
Where Did You Come From?
Where did you come from?
Where are you going?
Get the news from your own body!
It's all right here...if only we can stop and listen.
