by David Masterman (Author), Rabindranath Tagore (Translator), Kabir (Author)
Kabir was a 15th century Indian spiritual master who left a legacy of extraordinary poems that continue to capture the imagination of a diverse audience today. The poems downplay the importance of ritual and austerity, teaching that God is not confined to centers of worship or places of pilgrimage but found everywhere in creation. Most importantly, God is within us and this is where we must meet him. Kabir elevates us into the realm of the spirit - a world of beauty, majesty, even romance, where the relationship between lovers is a recurring metaphor for our relationship to the divine.
Building on the foundation of Rabindranath Tagore's translation, David Masterman has crafted a new poetic setting for today's reader and added a helpful appendix to clarify major themes.
