One Hundred Poems by Kabir/14

II. 56. dariyā kī lahar dariyāo hai jī
The river and its waves are one surf: where is the difference between the river and its waves ?
When the wave rises, it is the water; and when it falls, it is the same water again. Tell me, Sir, where is the distinction ?
Because it has been named as wave, shall it no longer be considered as water ?
Within the Supreme Brahma, the worlds are being told like beads:
Look upon that rosary with the eyes of wisdom.
