III. 55. ved kahe sargun ke age THE VEDAS say that the Unconditioned stands beyond the world of Conditions. O woman, what does it avail thee to dispute whether He is beyond all or in all? See thou everything as thine own dwelling place: the mist of pleasure and pain can never spread there. There Brahma is revealed day and night: there light is His garment, light is His seat, light rests on thy head. Kabir says: 'The Master, who is true, He is all light.'
I SEEK AND SEEK on my harp strings the notes that can blend with thine. Simple is the awakening of the morning and the flow of water, simple are the dewdrops on leaves, colours in clouds, the moonlight on sand-banks of the river and showers of rain in the midnight. I seek notes for my songs simple and full as these, fresh and flowing with life, old as the world and known to all. But my strings are newly strung and they bristle with sharp newness as with spears. Thus my songs never have the spirit of the winds, they never can mingle with the lights of the sky. My effort is an effort and my restless strains try hard to drown thy music.
