Excerpt
How could the love between Thee and me sever? As the leaf of the lotus abides on the water: so Thou art my Lord, and I am Thy servant. As the night-bird Chakor gazes all night at the moon: so Thou art my Lord and I am Thy servant. From the beginning until the ending of time, there is love between Thee and me; and how shall such love be extinguished?

✨ To meditate on today
According to Kabîr, the mystic poet of India, the love between God and the soul cannot break: it is as natural as the lotus leaf resting on the water or the chakor, a bird of Indian legend, gazing at the moon all night long. Tonight, look at the moon or the sky for a few moments, and say again to God, like Kabîr: "I am Thy servant."
