No Road to Tread – A Deep Poem on the Spiritual Journey by Sufi Mystic Kabir
Are you craving to progress on your spiritual journey?
"Stop," Kabir would say. For the journey you seek might not exist at all.
"No Road to Tread" is a beautiful poem by the great Sufi mystic that highlights the futility of trying to progress on the spiritual journey using external markers or milestones.
The spiritual, or inner, journey has no road, no path, no beginning or end.
To truly get a feel for this, watch this video in its entirety and get inspired by its life-changing wisdom.

Having crossed the river,
where will you go, O friend?
There's no road to tread,
No traveler ahead,
Neither a beginning, nor an end.
There's no water, no boat, no boatman, no cord;
No earth is there, no sky, no time, no bank, no ford.
You have forgotten the Self within,
Your search in the void will be in vain;
In a moment the life will ebb
And in this body you won't remain.
Be ever conscious of this, O friend,
You have to immerse within your Self;
Kabir says, salvation you won't then need,
For what you are, you would be indeed.
~ Kabir

Kabir Das (1398–1518) was a 15th-century Indian mystic poet and saint.
Born in the city of Varanasi in what is now Uttar Pradesh, he is known for being critical of both organized religion and religions. He questioned what he regarded to be the meaningless and unethical practices of all religions, primarily what he considered to be the wrong practices in the Hindu and Muslim religions.
Kabir suggested that "Truth" is with the person who is on the path of righteousness, considered everything, living and non living, as divine, and who is passively detached from the affairs of the world. To know the Truth, suggested Kabir, drop the "I", or the ego.
Kabir's legacy survives and continues through the Kabir panth ("Path of Kabir"), a religious community that recognizes him as its founder and is one of the Sant Mat sects.
