Lo! I am beside thee.

Excerpt

O servant, where dost thou seek Me? Lo! I am beside thee. I am neither in temple nor in mosque: I am neither in Kaaba nor in Kailash: Neither am I in rites and ceremonies, nor in Yoga and renunciation. If thou art a true seeker, thou shalt at once see Me: thou shalt meet Me in a moment of time. Kabîr says, "O Sadhu! God is the breath of all breath."

✨ To meditate on today

According to Kabîr, the mystic poet of India, God tells the one who seeks Him that He is not first of all in temples, mosques or holy places such as the Kaaba or Mount Kailash, but very close to him: He is "the breath of all breath". Today, at three moments of the day, stop for three breaths and feel, in each breath, that very close presence.
