AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Kindly explain the deeper meaning of the following couplets by Kabir das:🌾🪕✍️📜

1. मोरी सर से टली बला

भला हुआ मेरी मटकी फूटी रे

मैं तो पनिया भरन से छूटी रे

मोरी सर से टली बला

‘कबीरा’ भला हुआ हर बिसरे

मोरे सर से टली बला

2. भला हुआ मोरी माला टूटी

मैं तो राम भजन से छूटी रे

माला फेरों न कर जपों

और मुख से कहूँ न राम

राम हमारा हमें जपे रे

हम पायो बिसराम

‘कबीरा’ भला हुआ हर बिसरे

मोरे सर से टली बला

3. हद हद कर के सब गए

और बेहद गया न कोय

अनहद के मैदान में

सो रहा ‘कबीर’ सोय

‘कबीरा’ भला हुआ हर बिसरे

मोरे सर से टली बला

4. हर मरे तो हम मरे

और हमरी मरे बलाय

साँचे घर का बालका

सो मरे न मारा जाय

‘कबीरा’ भला हुआ हर बिसरे

मोरे सर से टली बला

It is an experience when the division between the sadhak and the sadhya, bhakta and Bhagwan is gone. As a result all responsibility for sadhana, all requirement for personal effort is gone. The matki is the limited consciousness bound to the body. The breaking of the pot liberates the consciousness from the limits of the mind. It gets connected to the universal and the infinite. The little human personality gone, all sense of personal responsibility is gone. In this consciousness of Unity the ego is gone and with it the duality of good and bad. To die to the ego is to discover God everywhere in everything through every name and form. The Divine himself is then realised as the sadhak and the sadhana until all, all, all becomes God, the one single Reality,  a state of complete freedom in God. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

First about the swadharma and the gunas. Swabhava and Swadharma belongs to the Soul’s unique status and mode, its natural poise and characteristic temperament in a particular life.
