man tu paar utar kahan jahiyo,
aage panthi panth na koi,
kuch mukaam na pahiyo..

na te neer naav na hi kebat,
na gun khechan hara,
dharti gagan kalp kuch naahi,
na kuch baar na paara.

balibaan hoye paitho ghat me,
bahi thore hohiyo,
baar baari bichaar man,
ant kahu mat jahiyo..


kahe kabir sab chaadi kalpana,
jyo ke tyo tharahyo..


------Kabir

Tera mera manwa kaise ek hoi re. 
Main kahta hun ankhon dekhi, tu kahta hai kagaj lekhi. 
Main kahta surjhawan hari, tu rakhyo urjhai re. 
Main kahta hun jagat rahiyo, tu rahta hai soi re. 
Main kahta hun nirmohi rahiyo, tu jata hai mohi re. 
Jugan jugan samjhawat hara, kahi na manat koi re. 
Tu to randi phire bihandi, sab dhan dara khoi re. 
Sadguru dhara nirmal bahe, wa me kaya dhoi re. 
Kahat Kabir suno bhai sadho, tab hi waisa hoi re

Kabir..

koi din gar zindagani aur hai
apne ji mein hamne thani aur hai

atish-e-dozakh mein ye garmi kahan
soz-e-gam hai nihani aur hai

barha dekhin hain un ki ranjishen
par kuch ab k sargirani aur hai

dek khat munh dekhta hai namabar
kuch to paigam-e-zabani aur hai

qata-e-amar hai aksar nujum
wo bala-e-asmani aur hai

                                                          ho chukin "Ghalib" balayen sab tamam
                                                             ek marg-e-nagahani aur hai

Knowledge to sell

What kind of intellect and attitude they have developed inside me when they say they are educating me. when
i read something I don't read it to know but read it to write somewhere. When i read and get something good and intersting i start comparing my knowledge with others and feel proud for my superiority that now i know more. When somebody makes mistakes and shows that he don't know something then i feel like a king and a thought makes that person a fool. What kind of atitude is this when u are learning something. I don't cocentrate on the concept, i concentrate on the conseqences and profits of acquiring it.
          In learning, is there any place of getting status from knowledge. when money get combined with knowledge it makes it a commodity and with commodity a traders mind comes. That trader thinking always keeps thinking about the profits for getting something, and destroys all charm, art and pleasure that was always attached to learning.

I was born with the tendency of love. This world taught me hatred. Now I hate this world.
