जो ऊग्या सो आँथवै, फूल्या सो कुमिलाइ I जो चिणियाँ सो ढहि पडै, जो आया सो जाइ II
"Kabir says, life always comes in pairs: the ups and downs of life, the strengths and weakness of life, the joys and sorrows of life. What is joy without sorrow? What is success without failure? What is a win without a loss? What is health without illness? You have to experience each if you are to appreciate the other. There is always going to be suffering. it’s how you look at your suffering, how you deal with it, that will define you. There is nothing permanent. Everything that rises must fall. As sunrise is the proof of immanent sunset or as the morning is the proof of approaching night, similarly, birth of an entity is the proof of it’s impending death. Time is the only dimension in which we all live our lives, and it affects everything that we do, from a flower's growing cycle to the destruction of empires. All things are born on time, grown on time and die on time. One needs to comprehend and regard the value of time by not wasting it. Better we not waste the precious moments of this rare human birth chasing frivolous material pursuits, for the true purpose of this rare human birth is God Realisation."
