One kills with a chop, one lets the blood drop.....


Recommended Posts

I don't want to start a war, but I came across this Shabad by Bhagat Kabir Ji and wanted to know what people think of it ( it's the 10th shabad in "the bijak of Kabir" -

Saints, I've seen both ways.

Hindus and Muslims don't want discipline,

they want tasty food.

The Hindu keeps the eleventh-day fast

eating chestnuts and milk.

He curbs his grain but not his brain

and breaks his fast with meat.

The Turk prays daily, fasts once a year,

and crows"God! God!" like a rooster.

What heaven is reserved for people

who kill chickens in the dark?

They've cast out all desire for kindness

and compassion.

One kills with a chop, one lets the blood drop,

in both houses burns the same fire.

Turks and Hindus have one way,

the guru's made it clear.

Don't say Ram, don't say Khuda.

So says Kabir.
