TRANSCRIPT:
I found something so rare,
So miraculous,
No-one can assess
How much it is worth.
It is colorless and One;
it is eternal and indivisible;
The waves of change never break over it;
It fills every vessel.
It has no weight; it has no price;
No-one can every measure it;
No-one can count it;
It cannot be known
Through talk or erudition.
It isn't heavy and it isn't light.
There isn't a touchstone in any world
That can reveal its worth.
I live in it; it lives in me
And we are one, like water
Mingled with water.
The one who knows it
Can never die-
The one who doesn't know it
Dies again and again.
I called this book Turn Me to Gold because Kabir himself was turned to gold. Kabir became the divine human, and we are in a massive evolutionary shift to birth us into our divine human. What more better guide into that birth could there be than this amazing man who in the 15th century was transformed into the gold that we are all destined to become.
