“Open a window to the west*,
Dive into love’s firmament within [meditation]
And eagerly drink nectar
From the cup of lotus petals;
Let love’s intoxication
Surge through your entire being
In waves of joy.”

— Kabir

*NOTE:

Whatever is in front of the body or outside the body has sometimes been described by Sants as the “east”; thus “west” in this context means “within the body.” The window in the west here implies the third eye, the gateway to the journey through the inner spiritual regions.
