Why did you do what you did, and why do you regret it now? You planted a baobab tree; where will you get mangoes from?

Kabir offers a sharp yet compassionate lesson on accountability and consequence. Through the simple metaphor of planting a banyan tree, he illustrates that one cannot expect the sweet fruits of mangoes from a poor or misguided effort. The Shayar is gently urging us to stop dwelling on regret and instead look back at the initial choices we made. It is a timeless reminder that our actions determine our destiny, and we must take ownership of the seeds we sow.
