In the Vrindavan of Thoughts: Kabir passed away at the age of 120

Darkness said: 'Beware!' Someone is coming with light from far away. Kill it before the first ray of sun arrives because we can't afford to risk another Kabir coming! This is a Gujarati translation of a Hindi poem written by me. A large fish in the Ganga flowing near Kashi and a stage erected on it. Poets of Kashi were present on the stage. Sadgat Bhanushankar Mehta, originally from Gujarat, was a great admirer of Kashi. He had a strong desire that the poets of Kashi should meet me and enjoy me. I was constantly in Kashi. Then I wrote and performed the above poem in Hindi. All the poets are happy! He has also published the translation of three of my books. I gave the title of the book 'Cardiogram', it was: 'Kahin Door Jab Din Dhale'. That book is found in Kashi, but not consumed. There can be no other thing as anti-religious and anti-intellectual as fanaticism. When fanaticism is manifested in the company of intelligence, the structure of religion remains forever, but a religion that loses the essence of religion is thoughtless and heartless. A thinking person is neither a Hindu nor a Muslim. It is a two-legged animal. Nowadays thinking people are in the minority and animals are in the majority. In a society where idiots are in majority, idiots also have power. This limitation of democracy seems stubborn. All people like peace. All people love peaceful prosperity. So where is the bottleneck? The obstacle remained to find the center of gravity. No Muslim has yet been seen who does not have a growing attachment to Islam. There has never been a Christian citizen who did not have a deep respect for Jesus. I have seen many Hindus, who have no ardent love for Rama or Krishna. Such thoughtless Hindus are called 'secular'! Such Hindus are automatically considered 'progressive'. What is born out of the dry ideas of such models we can call 'Synthetic Secularism'. Their secularism does not have the fragrance of the soil of the country. Such secular progressives have no objection to the backwardness of the minority. They see only the fault of Hindus. They consider such a one-sided and neutral mood as a proof of being secular! Kabir was truly secular. He did not see the difference between Ram-Rahim. Years ago when the Godhra train compartment was burnt by the Muslims, synthetic secularism was exposed! A thinker must ask: What is the difference between a amulet and a talisman? What is the difference between Mala and Tasbi? What is the difference between grapes and grapes? What is the difference between time and time? What is the difference between prayer and worship? What is the difference between God and Allah? The endless sky surrounding the dome of the temple and the minaret of the mosque is one and the same! Beware of Mahant and Mullah who divide the sky too! The thing hidden in such an understanding is Kabirvritti! The synthetic secularism of Lenin, Stalin, Mao Zedong and Nehru will not work in our land. Kabir left no stone unturned in upholding the true religion and exposing the false religion shrouded in hypocrisy. The world gets Kabir when devotion and revolution meet in one saint. Moonlight gives coolness to human mind. Sunlight burns, but it's deadly. In Kabir, the moon and the sun appear to be living together! Kabir had the coolness of devotion as well as the warmth of revolution. Kabir was 'temperate' inside. In the Gita Krishna says: Yoga Uchyate.' Kabir was a 'yogi' in such a context! Listen to the famous Bengali novelist Sharadbabu's statement: Power understands so well that in order to take the work of an animal from a human being, one must first become an animal! At the other end of the turban is Kabir Chowk in Kashi. What happened when Mahatma Gandhi visited there? Kabir's admirers lived there. He had kept a chair ready so that Mahatmaji would not have trouble sitting on the floor. Mahatma whose name? He decided to sit on the floor. The country has equally disappointed Kabir and Gandhi in terms of unity. Kabir's contemporary emperor was Sikandar Lodi. He killed a Brahmin. What is the reason? A Brahmin said: 'All religions are the same.' Well, he was immediately promoted for speaking this. There is another thing to know about Kabirkranti. A small village called Maghar is located a little far from Gorakhpur. A strong belief prevailed among the people that: those who die in Kashi go straight to heaven and those who die in Maghar are born as donkeys. When Kabirji's death was near, he stubbornly walked to Maghar and died. I have gone to Maghar. There is a temple and a mosque nearby. Blessed Kabir and Blessed Maghar! }
