Tell me, Brother, how can I renounce Maya? When I gave up the tying of ribbons, still I tied my garment about me: When I gave up tying my garment, still I covered my body in its folds. So, when I give up pa**ion, I see that anger remains; And when I renounce anger, greed is with me still;
And when greed is vanquished, pride and vainglory remain; When the mind is detached and casts Maya away, still it clings to the letter. Kabîr says, 'Listen to me, dear Sadhu! the true path is rarely found.'
