Evolving Spiritually - The Wisdom of Kabir - Spiritual Awakening Radio - Sant Mat Satsang Podcast

 


Evolving Spiritually - The Wisdom of Kabir - Spiritual Awakening Radio - Sant Mat Satsang Podcast





"Life is a progression. We progress from childhood to adulthood, from simplicity to complexity, from ignorance to knowledge, from innocence to wisdom and from birth to death. It is the law of life. But there is also a progression from the external life to the internal, from the hustle and bustle of material life to the serenity and silence of internal life. It is in the latter that we experience the beauty of the Self and its connection with Divinity." (Dr. Jagessar Das, Doctor by Chance - Mystic by Choice, also translator of, The Complete Bijak of Guru Kabir, and other translations of Kabir)

Kabir The Great Mystic: Spiritual and Ethical Teachings - Spiritual Awakening Radio - Sant Mat Satsang Podcast

 

 

Kabir The Great Mystic: Spiritual and Ethical Teachings - Spiritual Awakening Radio - Sant Mat Satsang Podcasts





Kabir, the "Rumi" of India, one of the greatest Saints, Poets, and Spiritual Masters in the history of the world! Selections: Says Kabir: "Kal (time, ego, limited mental perception) has entangled people in illusions to such an extent that they have totally forgotten their Real Home." "Meditation will remove all your burdens; meditation upon Ram's [God's] name will become your support." "One after another, many births I took; many paths I followed to escape this relentless cycle. Only when I made my mind still did I obtain the state of lasting repose." "Just as the lotus blooms after getting the light of the sun, in the same way the sufferings of the souls from ages and ages are finished after having darshan [vision] of Sat Purush [True Eternal Being, God]." The Bijak is a key scripture of the Kabir tradition: "Just as a coded document shows the way to a Hidden Treasure, just so this bijak shows the way to realize the soul; it teaches such words to the soul but there is seldom anyone to understand them." "Death enshrouds the whole world, including all the superstitious wise-men. Only those will be freed who find the Path of Love." (Satguru Kabir)

The Spiritual Treasure of Kabir - Mystic Verses of the Bijak - Spiritual Awakening Radio Podcasts

 

The Spiritual Treasure of Kabir - Mystic Verses of the Bijak - Spiritual Awakening Radio Podcasts





Kabir Says: "Just as a coded document shows the way to a hidden treasure, just so this Bijak shows the way to realize the soul. It teaches such instructive words to the soul, but there is seldom anyone to understand them." (Sakhi of Kabir)


Commentary by Dr. Jagessar Das: "Bijak means a coded document that leads to a hidden treasure. In this Bijak, Guru Kabir explains the path to that hidden treasure that is within, and not visible by the objective senses. He teaches everyone to give up cleverness and argumentation, and become humble and accept the Divine Lord dwelling within."

The term "Bijak" means treasure or treasure-map, in this case the treasure map of Guru Kabir. "Bij" means: the seed or essence. "Bijak" means treasure. The Bijak of Kabir is intended to be a treasure-map to the essence of reality: our soul and God.


In India the Bijak is the most popular sacred text containing the teachings of Guru Kabir, and as such is the main scripture for those who follow the Path of Kabir. Today we explore, "The Complete Bijak Of Kabir -- Guru Kabir's Mystical Teachings on God-Realization", by Dr. Jagessar Das, translating into English and commenting on the entire Bijak of Kabir. This is an impressive work, a true, grassroots "satsang template" of traditional Sant Mat, wonderful to have, featuring all eleven sections of the Bijak in one volume: the Ramainis, Shabdas, Sakhis, and other lesser-known sections.


"The Bijak tells of a treasure,

a treasure that doesn't show.

The word tells of a creature.

Only rare ones know." (Kabir)


From the Principals of Kabir Published in the Earlier Ahmad Shah Translation of, The Bijak: 

"To believe in One Avagat, Satya Purush [One God]. His bhakti [devotion, love] should be practiced.

Have faith in the Master and in his teaching.

True Sadhus should be served.

Show mercy and love towards all Jivas [souls].

To abstain from all kinds of meats.

No visible object in this world should be worshiped.

Do not tell lies.

Do not steal.

Do not gamble.

Do not curse anyone.

Repeat Satya Nam.

Practice bhakti of Satya Purush [God] and teach about him.

Hindu, Muslim and any other sect can join Kabir’s religion.

Without the knowledge of Sar Shabd [the True Sound], no one can attain jiva mukti (liberation, salvation).

Abuse, deceit and jealousy are enemies of jiva mukti.

Humility is a great virtue.

Give thanks for the gift of the Sat Guru.

Without true love of God the practice of bhakti is fruitless.

To read the Sat Guru’s words is a great virtue.

One should know the Supreme Spirit."

Sant Kabir lived during the fifteenth century, raised near Banaras by Muslim parents. He was a weaver, a simple and unlettered man, who earned his living at the loom. It is out of the heart of the common life that he sings his rapturous lyrics of Divine love.


“Kabir” is an Islamic name popular in the Muslim world — it’s one of the “Ninety-Nine Names of Allah” found in the Koran, meaning, “The Greatest”.


Today, Kabir has over twenty-five million devotees in various Kabir Panth and Sant lineages, and is loved by Sikhs, Hindus, Jains, Christians, and Muslims alike. Kabir’s hymns are still sung in the satsangs of various paths all over India and around the world.


Everyone’s Universal Saint, Kabir was:


 - a Master or Sant Sat Guru of Surat Shabd Yoga, a founding Guru of Sant Mat and Kabir Panths;


- a musician and poet of Nirguna Bhakti (love and devotion for the One Beloved Formless God);


- a great teacher of Eastern Gnosis (Gnosticism or mysticism);


- peace maker between Hindus and Muslims;


- a social reformer in India who denounced the caste system;


- thought of by many in Islam to be a Sufi Master or Murshid;


- believed by Hindus to be one of the greatest poet-mystics and Vaishnava devotees in the history of India;


- considered a Bhagat by the Sikhs — many of his hymns are included in the Adi Granth (Guru Granth Sahib, the Sikh scriptures);


- influenced by Goraknath and the Nath Yogis, and the Nath Yogis of northern India were, in turn, influenced by Tantric Buddhism;


- Kabir’s spirituality is a blend of Prem and Bhakti: love and devotion for the Beloved Lord, the One God (Ek Ongkaar), and mystical, soul travel experiences of a visionary and auditory nature (Inner Light and Sound Meditation, Surat Shabd Yoga).

The Path to the Hidden Treasure of Spirituality Within -- Bijak of Guru Kabir, Ramaini # 37:




"The first clever person (non-dualist) is not clever because non-dualism and dualism have relative existence with each other.

The second clever person is preoccupied with the theory of maya (illusion - maya vadi) and is lost in maya.

The third clever person has been eaten by cleverness (ignorance covers the soul).

The fourth clever person took the people with him (the people who believe in different gods -- wandered in many heavens and hells of their own beliefs).

Who will know the fifth clever person? He enjoys the pleasures of the senses and gets lost. 

All become puzzled with the sixth clever person who got lost in imagining the mind to be the soul.

O brother! If you know the seventh cleverness show it to me in the Vedas or the behaviour of the people."

Sakhi of Kabir:

"Just as a coded document shows the way to a hidden treasure, just so this bijak shows the way to realize the soul;
It teaches such words to the soul but there is seldom anyone to understand them."

Commentary by Dr. Jagessar Das:

This ramaini is a condensed but critical examination of the theories of the various schools of thought. These are various schools of philosophy and other belief systems which are present in India and in varying forms in all other countries. There are the Dualists and Non-Dualists as described in the previous ramaini. There is the Maya-Vadi school of thought. Kabir does not mention the names of each school but he has given several belief systems to which people adhere and accordingly lead their followers.

The various systems of belief comprise only external, philosophical knowledge. They contain beliefs in various doctrines and dogmas, rituals and ceremonies, theories about heaven and hell, belief in the mind and the soul being the same, belief that pleasure is the highest good in life, etc. None of these belief systems gives one knowledge of God which is an inner, intuitive realization of the Supreme Being as the Eternal Truth, Supreme Consciousness and the only Reality which exists without a cause. This Reality dwells within. The Saints and Satgurus do not pay attention to the wrangling and hair splitting of philosophical thoughts whether practical or theoretical. They dive directly into the Source and experience God for themselves. Thus whatever they say, becomes scripture. They do not teach philosophy, doctrine or dogma but they teach the Reality of God as the Ever-present Master dwelling within. They have no confusion about whether the mind is the soul or whether the body is the soul, or whether pleasure is the highest good in life. They have no confusion about heaven and hell. They have no confusion about maya and Reality. As long as people are preoccupied with these, they will not obtain Self Realization.

Bijak means a coded document which leads to a hidden treasure. In this Bijak Guru Kabir explains the path to that hidden treasure which is within and not visible by the objective senses. He teaches everyone to give up cleverness and argumentation, and to become humble and accept the Divine Lord dwelling within.

-- The Complete Bijak of Guru Kabir, Kabir's Mystical Teachings on God-realization, translation and commentary by Dr. Jagessar Das

ek sayan sayan na hoi, dusar sayan na jane koi;
tisar sayan sayanahi khai, chouthe sayan tahan lai jai;
panchaye sayan jo janeu koi, chhathaye man sab gayal bigoi,
sataye sayan jo janahu bhai, lok ved mo dehu dekhai

Sakhi: bijak bitt batawai, jo bitt gupta hoi,
aise shabd batawai jiw ko, bujhai birla koi.

Kabir: "Honour those who live and speak the truth."




Kabir: "The soul is like a philosopher’s stone, and the world is like iron. With the touch of the philosopher’s stone, the world became gold." (Sakhis of Kabir, # 57)

57. pāras rūpi jīw hai, loha rūp sansār,
pāras te pāras bhayā, parakh bhayā taksār.

Commentary by Dr. Das: "Guru Kabir is using this belief to explain that the indwelling soul is like the philosopher’s stone, and that the world is like iron. All the physical bodies have no life or consciousness until they are touched by the soul. Once the soul dwells (touches) in the bodies, then the latter become alive and manifest consciousness and intelligence. Our goal in life is to realize the soul and truly become golden i.e. liberated."

Kabir: "O Kabir, put on the clothes of love and dance! Give honor to those who, in mind and body, uphold the Truth." 

58. prem-pāt kā cholanā, pahir kabīrū nāch,
pānip dīnho tāsu ko, jo tan man bole sānch.

Commentary by Dr. Das: "One who I awakened to God’s love i.e. Self realized, will often sing and dance with joy. The next thing such a devotee needs to do is to honour those who live and speak the truth." (Sakhis of Kabir, # 58)
