1374 : 372
The hail-stone has melted into water, and flowed into the ocean. ||177||

1374 : 373
Kabeer, the body is a pile of dust, collected and packed together.

1374 : 374
It is a show which lasts for only a few days, and then dust returns to dust. ||178||

1374 : 375
Kabeer, bodies are like the rising and setting of the sun and the moon.

1374 : 376
Without meeting the Guru, the Lord of the Universe, they are all reduced to dust again. ||179||

1374 : 377
Where the Fearless Lord is, there is no fear; where there is fear, the Lord is not there.

1374 : 378
Kabeer speaks after careful consideration; hear this, O Saints, in your minds. ||180||

1374 : 379
Kabeer, those who do not know anything, pass their lives in peaceful sleep.

1374 : 380
But I have understood the riddle; I am faced with all sorts of troubles. ||181||

1374 : 381
Kabeer, those who are beaten cry a lot; but the cries of the pain of separation are different.

1374 : 382
Struck by the Mystery of God, Kabeer remains silent. ||182||

1374 : 383
Kabeer, the stroke of a lance is easy to bear; it takes away the breath.

1374 : 384
But one who endures the stroke of the Word of the Shabad is the Guru, and I am his slave. ||183||

1374 : 385
Kabeer: O Mullah, why do you climb to the top of the minaret? The Lord is not hard of hearing.

1374 : 386
Look within your own heart for the One, for whose sake you shout your prayers. ||184||

1374 : 387
Why does the Shaykh bother to go on pilgrimage to Mecca, if he is not content with himself?

1374 : 388
Kabeer, one whose heart is not healthy and whole - how can he attain his Lord? ||185||

1374 : 389
Kabeer, worship the Lord Allah; meditating in remembrance on Him, troubles and pains depart.

1374 : 390
The Lord shall be revealed within your own heart, and the burning fire within shall be extinguished by His Name. ||186||

1374 : 391
Kabeer, to use force is tyranny, even if you call it legal.

1374 : 392
When your account is called for in the Court of the Lord, what will your condition be then? ||187||

1374 : 393
Kabeer, the dinner of beans and rice is excellent, if it is flavored with salt.

1374 : 394
Who would cut his throat, to have meat with his bread? ||188||

1374 : 395
Kabeer, one is known to have been touched by the Guru, only when his emotional attachment and physical illnesses are eradicated.

1374 : 396
He is not burned by pleasure or pain, and so he becomes the Lord Himself. ||189||

1374 : 397
Kabeer, it does make a difference, how you chant the Lord's Name, 'Raam'. This is something to consider.

1374 : 398
Everyone uses the same word for the son of Dasrath and the Wondrous Lord. ||190||

1374 : 399
Kabeer, use the word 'Raam', only to speak of the All-pervading Lord. You must make that distinction.

1374 : 400
One 'Raam' is pervading everywhere, while the other is contained only in himself. ||191||

1374 : 401
Kabeer, those houses in which neither the Holy nor the Lord are served

1374 : 402
- those houses are like cremation grounds; demons dwell within them. ||192||

1374 : 403
Kabeer, I have become mute, insane and deaf.

1374 : 404
I am crippled - the True Guru has pierced me with His Arrow. ||193||

1374 : 405
Kabeer, the True Guru, the Spiritual Warrior, has shot me with His Arrow.

1374 : 406
As soon as it struck me, I fell to the ground, with a hole in my heart. ||194||

1374 : 407
Kabeer, the pure drop of water falls from the sky, onto the dirty ground.
