The object is not the customer; it is as priceless as the ocean. A human being without virtue wanders aimlessly.

When Kabir shares this couplet, he moves us beyond the transactional nature of life. He tells us that the true value of anything isn't determined by the buyer or the exchange; the object itself is a priceless ocean of inherent worth. This profound insight emphasizes that our inner virtue (karam) is the ultimate wealth. A human being lacking moral fiber, naturally, wanders aimlessly through existence.
