O Lord Increate, who will serve Thee?

Every votary offers his worship to the God of his own creation:

  each day he receives service--

None seek Him, the Perfect: Brahma, the Indivisible Lord.

They believe in ten Avatars; but no Avatar can be the Infinite

  Spirit, for he suffers the results of his deeds:

The Supreme One must be other than this.

The Yogi, the Sanyasi, the Ascetics, are disputing one with

  another:

KabĂ®r says, "O brother!  he who has seen that radiance of love,

  he is saved."
