Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
My body is built from a few simple elements — but where did those come from?
People say my life is shaped by what I've done before — but who set that whole system spinning in the first place? Every answer opens a bigger, more wonderful question.
Panch tat — the five elements old thinkers said the body is made of. Kabir doesn't stop at the tidy answer; he keeps asking behind it. Where did the elements come from? If karma shapes us, who gave the very idea of karma? This is the honest, fearless curiosity the project prizes: real wonder keeps walking past every easy stopping-point.
When someone gives you an answer, what would it be like to gently ask, 'but where does *that* come from?'
