Man of bookish language looses all basics, becomes God (doer) himself
A worldly person is better than Him as at least he is always fearful.

According to Kabir worldly person who is having fear of God is better than the person who has become knowledgeable.

The more knowledgeable you are, the more egoistic you are . . . hence the ego of the scholars, pundits, maulvis.

The ego becomes decorated with great knowledge, scriptures, systems of thought. But they don’t make you innocent; they don’t bring you the childlike quality of openness, of trust, of love, of playfulness. Trust, love, playfulness, wonder all disappear when you become very knowledgeable.

And we are being taught to become knowledgeable. We are not taught to be innocent, we are not taught how to feel the wonder of existence. We are told the names of the flowers, but we are not taught how to dance around the flowers. We are told the names of the moun-tains, but we are not taught how to commune with the mountains, how to commune with the stars, how to commune with the trees, how to be in tune with existence.
Out of tune, how can you be happy?
Out of tune, you are bound to remain in anguish, in great misery, in pain. You can be happy only when you are dancing with the dance of the whole, when you are just a part of the dance, when you are just a part of this great orchestra, when you are not singing your song separately Only then, in that melting, is man free.
