By way of this blog, I am asking each country to immediately have the works of saint Kabir translated into their language and make it mandatory for each child to read his works. This alone will make compelling changes in the way the society shapes itself in the modern conflicts. UN also needs to notice that it is not only ancient heritage buildings and wildlife, which needs attention, but words of wisdom also need to be heritage-d. Modern world needs more wisdom, then more heritage sites.
Kabir is my favorite philosopher of all times. An uneducated saint, who out of simple common sense bought about a revolutionary change in the social pattern of the society. He jettisoned most religious practices and perhaps the first one of his times to challenge the religious books and religious beliefs. Not that the religious fanatics did not exist during his period, but his simple and straight poetry was more of music to the ears of people, then a debate on the religion.
If Kabir would come back and only repeat what he wrote then, he would still run away with a Nobel Peace Prize and Nobel literature price and of course would have been the most loved philosopher .
Kabir said, if God could be praised by worshiping a statue, then I am prepared to worship a mountain of a statue. But, better to worship the home grinder, that feeds the family.
For the Swiss controversy on Minarets, Kabir said in the 15th century, Mullah climbs the Minaret and screams to God, but why does he have to do that, God has not gone deaf anyway.
In Europe, the only country which recognized Kabir is France, whereas most of the world is still ignorant of this great Saint. Whose poetry needs to be recited every single day for all those who find their answers in religion and religious practices.
I will continue to write on Kabir endlessly. Meantime, if you get a chance, get the CD of Osho on Khumari, where he compares Kabir to Lord Buddha.
