Shayar Kabir asks, who is awake, and who is not awake? For one whose subject is filled with poison, even a servant becomes a devotee.
Kabir, the great Shayar, challenges us with this profound question: who is truly awake? He suggests that the deepest struggle is internal, implying that worldly attachments act like poison in the mind. When the consciousness is poisoned by ego and desires, the apparent devotion is merely a superficial act, not genuine spirituality. Kabir’s message is a powerful call to wake up and seek truth within.
