Kabir, Talks on Songs of Kabir, The Divine Melody Chapter 1: God is dwelling everywhere, HE IS THE REAL MASTER, WHO CAN REVEAL THE FORM OF THE FORMLESS TO THE VISION OF THESE EYES: WHO TEACHES THE SIMPLE WAY OF ATTAINING HIM, THAT IS OTHER THAN RITES OR CEREMONIES: WHO DOES NOT MAKE YOU CLOSE THE DOORS, AND HOLD THE BREATH, AND RENOUNCE THE WORLD: WHO MAKES YOU PERCEIVE THE SUPREME SPIRIT WHEREVER THE MIND ATTACHES ITSELF: WHO TEACHES YOU TO BE STILL IN THE MIDST OF ALL YOUR ACTIVITIES. EVER IMMERSED IN BLISS, HAVING NO FEAR IN HIS MIND, HE KEEPS THE FEAR OF UNION IN THE MIDST OF ALL ENJOYMENTS. THE INFINITE DWELLING OF THE INFINITE BEING IS EVERYWHERE: IN EARTH, WATER, SKY, AND AIR: FIRM AS THE THUNDERBOLT, THE SEAT OF THE SEEKER IS ESTABLISHED ABOVE THE VOID.

Kabir, Talks on Songs of Kabir, The Divine Melody Chapter 2: Become a flame, Question 1, I REALIZED IN YESTERDAY'S DISCOURSE THAT I AM RESISTING THE WORD `GOD'. MY THOUGHTS GO BACK TO AN EVENT WHICH HAPPENED SEVERAL YEARS AGO WHEN I WAS CARING FOR A VERY ILL MAN IN THE HOSPITAL -- HE WAS DYING. HE HAD ASKED ME TO GET A PRIEST FOR HIM AS HE WAS AFRAID. ON ARRIVAL OF THE PRIEST, THE ILL MAN SAID, 'GOD DAMN YOU,' DIRECTLY TO THE PRIEST. AND THE PRIEST WALKED AWAY, AND SAID TO ME, 'HE ISN'T WORTH IT.' I TOLD THE PRIEST, 'THIS MAN IS VERY ILL AND THE WORDS HE USES, HE KNOW NOT.' THE PRIEST STILL REFUSED TO HELP HIM. SINCE THAT DAY I HAVE NOT GONE INTO A CHURCH. I KNOW GOD IS WITHIN ME. WHAT IS THE RESISTANCE THEN? PLEASE HELP ME at energyenhancement.org
