Without a satguru Man...ignorant
Without a satguru
Without a satguru1 Man remains ignorant and lost
A lion cub became lost and wandered into a shepherd's flock
He was adopted and raised by the shepherd
He played and moved with the sheep
Never realizing his true nature
A lion came from the forest
Seeing this fully grown sheep-lion,
He was amazed and angered
He caught him firmly and at once explained the truth
When the sheep-lion saw what he had become, he smiled
The fragrance of the musk is embedded within the deer
But the foolish animal runs hither and thither
Searching for the source of the fragrance
If only he could look within, He will find the fragrance within himself.
Says Kabir –
My being is centered in between ‘above' and ‘below',
the splendorous experience is indescribable
Listen, oh Aspirant! turn within and find your Self.
1 One who reveals the Ultimate Truth. The word has no English equivalent.

HINGLISH
Bin Sat-Guru Nar Rahat Bhulana
Kehar Sutale Aayo Gadariya,
Paal Posa Unha Keenha Sayaana
Karat Kallol Rahat Ajayan Sangh
Apna Marma Unahun Nahin Janaa
Kehar Ik Jangal Se Aayaa
Tahu Dekhi Bahuta Risiyaana
Pakada Ke Bheda Turanta Samajhaaya
Apni Dasa Dekha Muskyanaa
Jasa Kurang Beech Basat baasna
Khojata murakh Phirata chaugaana
Karau Sawaas Mana Mein Dekhe
Iha Sugandhi Dhau, Aap Samaana
Ardha Urdha Beecha Lagana Lagi Re
Chhakyo Roopa Nahin Jaat Bakhaana
Kahata Kabir Suno Bhai Sadho
Ulati Aap Mein, Aap Samaana |
