माली आवत देख के , कलियान करी पुकार। फूल-फूल चुन लिए , काल हमारी बार॥ 225॥
— Kabir
Meaning
Seeing the gardener approach, Kaliana called out. Picking flower after flower, destiny claimed us.
Explanation
This couplet offers a profound message about the transience of life and the necessity of detachment. The 'flowers' here are metaphors for worldly pleasures and fleeting experiences that we constantly gather. When Kabir speaks of 'Kaal' (destiny/time) calling us, he reminds us that time is always collecting our actions and attachments. The core insight is that we shouldn't chase after these physical attractions, but instead focus on the eternal truth of existence.
