Kabir ke Dohe Doha 168 meaning
roda hvai raho bat ka, taji pakhand abhiman
aisa je jan hvai rahai, tahi milai bhagavan
रोड़ा ह्वै रहो बाट का, तजि पाखंड अभिमान ।
ऐसा जे जन ह्वै रहै, ताहि मिलै भगवान ॥
Become like a pebble on the path, giving up pretence and pride. One who lives like that finds God.
What it means
A pebble on the road doesn't demand respect. True humility means not needing to be noticed. That quiet, unpretentious way of living is where the sacred is found.How it helps in real life
- At work: New manager, and you're tempted to mention your IIM degree in the first meeting. Instead, ask everyone what's broken and just listen.
- Helping others: At the gurudwara langar, skip the photo for Instagram. Wash dishes for an hour where nobody is watching.
हिंदी में अर्थ
रास्ते का कंकड़ बनकर रहो, दिखावा और घमंड छोड़कर। जो ऐसा बनकर रहता है, उसे भगवान मिलते हैं।
रास्ते का कंकड़ सम्मान नहीं माँगता। सच्ची विनम्रता है ध्यान खींचने की ज़रूरत न होना। ऐसे सादे, बिना दिखावे के जीवन में ही पवित्रता मिलती है।
