Just as the eyes are filled with tears, the master (God) is within the house. Foolish people do not realize this and keep searching for the ocean.

Kabir uses the powerful metaphor of tears to explain divine presence. He suggests that just as the eyes are filled with tears, the Divine Master resides within our own homes. The core message is that people mistakenly search for the ocean outside, failing to recognize the infinite reality that is already present within them.
