कबीरांचं भजन आपण पाहात आहोत, साधो सो सतगुरु मोहिं भावै! सद्गुरू मला जी उपासना देतात त्यात ते स्वत: रममाण असतात. भौतिकाच्या ओढीतून मला बाहेर काढतात आणि त्यांच्या चित्तातही भौतिकाचा सूक्ष्मसा तरंगदेखील नसतो. कबीरजी म्हणतात, ‘‘मेले जाय न महंत कहावै, पूजा भेंट न लावै।’’ स्वतला महंत म्हणवून घेत ते जत्रा भरवत नाहीत. स्वतचं स्तोम माजवत नाहीत की उदोउदो करीत नाहीत.

हमन है इश्क मस्ताना, हमन को होशियारी क्या। रहें आजाद या जग में, हमें दुनिया से यारी क्या ।। आत्मतृप्ताची स्थिती कबीर सांगत आहेत. परमेश्वराच्या प्रेमात जो आकंठ बुडाला आहे त्याला कशाचा होश असेल?
