Kabir ke Dohe Doha 177 meaning
kajal keree kothadee, taisa yahu sansar
baliharee ta das kee, paisi ju nikasanahar
काजल केरी कोठड़ी, तैसा यहु संसार ।
बलिहारी ता दास की, पैसि जु निकसणहार ॥
This world is like a room full of soot. I bow to the one who goes in and comes out without a stain.
What it means
You can't avoid the world's mess: deals, politics, temptation. The real skill is to engage fully and still come out clean. Integrity is tested inside the room, not outside it.How it helps in real life
- At work: Your sales team quietly fudges numbers before quarter end. Close your deals the clean way, and say no when asked to adjust.
- With friends: Your friends gossip about absent people every weekend. Stay for the fun, but don't add your own gossip to the pile.
हिंदी में अर्थ
यह संसार काजल की कोठरी जैसा है। उस भक्त पर मैं न्योछावर हूँ जो इसमें जाकर भी बेदाग़ निकल आए।
दुनिया की गंदगी से बचा नहीं जा सकता, सौदे, राजनीति, प्रलोभन। असली हुनर है पूरी तरह जुड़कर भी साफ़ निकलना। ईमानदारी की परीक्षा कोठरी के भीतर होती है।
