The market is set up to trade
Transact any amount you like
The trader struck a good bargain
The fool wears a long face
With the very engaging metaphor of the market, Kabir invites us into another kind of trade, another kind of dealing, another kind of profit! We’re always so concerned with winning and losing, with success and failure, with gain and loss. But Kabir assures us bee-like seekers flitting from flower to flower, from experience to experience, always in a hurry to consume, that in fact there is nothing lacking. That in this body-vessel the nectar of Raam is overflowing. You only have to tap into it and drink your fill, O bee.

Kaluram Bamaniya belongs to a vibrant tradition of singing bhakti poets such as Kabir, Gorakhnath, Bananath and Meera in the Malwa region of Madhya Pradesh in India. He started learning at the early age of 9, by accompanying his father, grandfather and uncle on the manjiras. When he was 13 years old he ran away from home and went to Rajasthan, where he absorbed a wide repertoire of songs from an itinerant Mirasi singer Ram Niwas Rao for 1-2 years.
