Kab\u00eer kab se bhaye vair\u00e2g\u00ee\nGORAKHNATH asks Kab\u00eer:\n\"Tell me, O Kab\u00eer, when did your vocation begin? Where did your love have its rise?\"\nKab\u00eer answers:\n\"When He whose forms are manifold had not begun His play: when there was no Guru, and no disciple: when the world was not spread out: when the Supreme One was alone--\nThen I became an ascetic; then, O Gorakh, my love was drawn to Brahma.\nBrahma did not hold the crown on his head; the god Vishnu was not {p. 78} anointed as king; the power of Shiva was still unborn; when I was instructed in Yoga.\nI became suddenly revealed in Benares, and R\u00e2m\u00e2nanda illumined me;\nI brought with me the thirst for the Infinite, and I have come for the meeting with Him.\nIn simplicity will I unite with the Simple One; my love will surge up.\nO Gorakh, march thou with His music!\"","title":"XXIX","type":"page"}
