"The bhakti path [path of love] winds in a delicate way.
On this path there is no asking and not asking.
The ego simply disappears the moment you touch him.
The joy of looking for him is so immense that you just dive in,
and coast around like a fish in the water.
If anyone needs a head, the lover leaps up to offer his.
Kabir's poems touch on the secrets of this bhakti."
Kabir (15th Century)
from The Kabir Book: Forty-Four fo the Ecstatic Poems of Kabir,
Translated by Robert Bly
