माला फेरत जुग गया, मिटा न मन का फेर I कर का मन का डारि दे, मन का मनका फेर II
"Kabir says, the sweet remembrance of God is to be done with the tongue of thought and not by word of mouth. Telling beads we please ourselves and yet we never gain. Aeons have passed in telling beads, yet our minds changed not; So cast off the wooden beads and take to the mental ones. If we were to make a bead of the mind, an inward light would dawn again. The telling of beads on the rosary gives just a mental satisfaction, but leads nowhere. If you were to turn the beads of the mind you would witness God's light within. True rosary lies in the mind, the rest is all sham and a worldly show. In vain is the rosary that loosens not the mind knot. And therefore instead of telling of the wooden-beaded rosary, let it be a continuous mental rosary with the breath beads turned endlessly without any effort."
