Sukhan AI
ज्यों तिल मांही तेल है , ज्यों चकमक में आग। तेरा सांई तुझमें , बस जाग सके तो जाग॥ 69॥
Kabir
Meaning

Just as oil is to sesame seeds, and fire is to flint. Your divine self resides within you; awaken to it, if you are capable of doing so.

Explanation

This couplet beautifully illustrates the concept of latent divinity. The metaphors—oil in sesame seeds and fire in flint—are powerful reminders that the divine potential resides within us, hidden but always present. Kabir’s message is profoundly personal: your divine self ('Sañai') is already within you. The goal is not to find the divine outside, but to awaken to the magnificent truth that has always been a part of your being. It's a call for inner realization.
