The Poetry of Kabir

Robert Bly performs the poetry of Kabir at one of the Mythic Journeys conferences. Musical accompaniment by Eugene Friesen and Arto Tuncboyaciyan.

Totally in awe, never even expected anything on Kabir, whom I as a musician always admired. I love the music , the diction and marvel that Kabir must had lived 129 years. Many thanks.

Thank you for posting this. I have been searching Robert Bly for a long time. I'm glad it's finally here, and in such high quality.

Robert Bly is Kabir, Kabir is Robert Bly :) I Love this, makes my heart sing!

Conscious Spirituality has a direct energetic connection to Kabir's poetry and lineage due to its core values of harmony, tolerance and inclusiveness. These being essentially the same as those propagated by Kabir, a 15th century mystic and poet who lived in India. Tony Samara teaches Conscious Spirituality Courses

the poem and the duduk go together amazingly well !

[@molloyx]

This so resonates with his Morning Poems and the orchestration, if you will [ and I must say at first I thought 'oh nooo jesus h christ bly this will verge on the terrible impulsiveness of an old man wishing to be otherwise], is full of guts and beauty. Here I seek to escape the Ramada Inn o Death.

my body and breath of life belong to me, not a foreign entity, maybe my body breath and life belongs to God but maybe God is me in that I am his desire therefore our body and breath and life belongs to us and we will dance all night and all day for all and we all shall party forever.

[@ShatteredPaperIdiot]

what did he say at the last..the whole sentence..does neone know it??

[@RAGSTAluvsDA90z]

Kabir one of Allah's 99 names

[@chafut]

Why did he say, that Kabir is ancestor of Rumi, Kabir was born 100 years after Rumi died. I think he made a mistake there, maybe he wanted to say that he was his descendant.

[@jagan31982]

chafut if you study Kabir, Rumi, Guru Nanak, Guru Ravidas, Farid, Bulleh shah any many others then you will know why he said kabir is ancestors of Rumi

[@KaberleeTV]

will he administer justice to me?

When the guest (god) is being searched for, it's the intensity of the longing for the guest that does all the work. Look at me and you will see a slave to that intensity. then he makes some annoying cello noises lol, is that what you ment?
