Guest guest Posted February 12, 2003 Report Share Posted February 12, 2003 Jaya Sri Radhey! "The Bhakti Path WINDS in a DELICATE way. On this PATH there is No ASKING and NO 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." - Poem.23 from 'The Kabir Book' by Robert Bly "Oh friend, I love you, think this over carefully! If you are in Love, then WHY are you asleep? If you have FOUND HIM, GIVE yourself TO HIM, TAKE HIM. Why do you LOSE track of HIM AGAIN and AGAIN? If you are about to FALL into heavy SLEEP anyway, WHY WASTE TIME smoothing the BED and ARRANGING the pillows? Kabir will tell you the TRUTH: This is WHAT LOVE IS LIKE: suppose you had to CUT your HEAD OFF and GIVE it to someone else, WHAT difference would THAT MAKE?" - Poem. 3 from 'The Kabir Book' by Robert Bly Jaya Sri Radhey!
