Famous Quotes By Basava
In a brahmin house
where they feed the fire
as a god
when the fire goes wild
and burns the house
they splash on it
the water of the gutter
and the dust of the street,
beat their breasts
and call the crowd.
These men then forget their worship
and scold their fire,
O lord of the meeting rivers! — Basava
Listen, O lord of the meeting rivers,
things standing shall fall,
but the moving ever shall stay. — Basava
The rich will make temples for Siva. What shall I, a poor man, do? My legs are pillars, the body the shrine, the head the cupola of gold. — Basava
