You shall find naught in that emptiness.\n Be strong, and enter into your own p. 70 body: for there your foothold is firm. Consider it well, O my heart! go not elsewhere,\n Kab\u00eer says: \"Put all imaginations away, and stand fast in that which you are.\"","title":"The Songs of Kabir: XX","type":"page"}
