जहाँ आपा तहाँ आपदां , जहाँ संशय तहाँ रोग। कह कबीर यह क्यों मिटे , चारों धीरज रोग॥ 26॥
— Kabir
Meaning
Where there is delusion, there is disaster; where there is doubt, there is disease. Shayar Kabir asks why these four afflictions should vanish: the four diseases of patience.
Explanation
Kabir uses this couplet to show the profound link between the mind and suffering. He suggests that where delusion (Aapa) resides, disaster follows, and where doubt (Sanshay) takes root, disease appears. The Shayar asks why these four afflictions—the struggles of patience—should vanish. This insight reminds us that much of our suffering is not external, but rather a reflection of our internal confusion and lack of certainty.
