Bhagat Kabir Ji · Salok Kabeer Jee
ਹਰਿ ਹੈ ਖਾਂਡੁ ਰੇਤੁ ਮਹਿ ਬਿਖਰੀ ਹਾਥੀ ਚੁਨੀ ਨ ਜਾਇ ॥
har hai khaandd ret meh bikharee haathee chunee na jaae |
The Lord is like sugar, scattered in the sand; the elephant cannot pick it up.
ਕਹਿ ਕਬੀਰ ਗੁਰਿ ਭਲੀ ਬੁਝਾਈ ਕੀਟੀ ਹੋਇ ਕੈ ਖਾਇ ॥੨੩੮॥
keh kabeer gur bhalee bujhaaee keettee hoe kai khaae |238|
Says Kabeer, the Guru has given me this sublime understanding: become an ant, and feed on it. ||238||
