00:00:00.840 --> 00:00:03.150 align:middle line:84%
Well, I think we'll move to
a different sort of reform.

00:00:03.150 --> 00:00:07.360 align:middle line:90%


00:00:07.360 --> 00:00:08.140 align:middle line:90%
I want to read--

00:00:08.140 --> 00:00:10.720 align:middle line:90%


00:00:10.720 --> 00:00:13.000 align:middle line:90%
see, what time is getting to be?

00:00:13.000 --> 00:00:18.040 align:middle line:84%
We'll read two or three
more poems, and then stop.

00:00:18.040 --> 00:00:22.400 align:middle line:90%


00:00:22.400 --> 00:00:28.660 align:middle line:84%
I'm going to read a poem of
the great Indian poet, Kabir,

00:00:28.660 --> 00:00:29.725 align:middle line:90%
of the 15th century.

00:00:29.725 --> 00:00:33.310 align:middle line:90%


00:00:33.310 --> 00:00:38.110 align:middle line:84%
I don't know what sort of
god we've been talking about.

00:00:38.110 --> 00:00:40.900 align:middle line:84%
This is basically
from a Muslim country,

00:00:40.900 --> 00:00:45.580 align:middle line:84%
and refers to the muezzin
calling from the high tower.

00:00:45.580 --> 00:00:49.060 align:middle line:84%
I don't know what sort of
god we've been talking about.

00:00:49.060 --> 00:00:52.960 align:middle line:84%
The caller calls to the
holy creature at dusk,

00:00:52.960 --> 00:00:55.360 align:middle line:90%
in a loud voice.

00:00:55.360 --> 00:00:56.710 align:middle line:90%
Why?

00:00:56.710 --> 00:01:00.370 align:middle line:84%
Surely, the holy
one is not deaf.

00:01:00.370 --> 00:01:06.100 align:middle line:84%
He hears the delicate anklet,
ringing under feet of an insect

00:01:06.100 --> 00:01:09.850 align:middle line:90%
as it walks.

00:01:09.850 --> 00:01:13.000 align:middle line:90%
Count your beads, over and over.

00:01:13.000 --> 00:01:16.360 align:middle line:84%
Paint the mark of
God on your forehead.

00:01:16.360 --> 00:01:21.640 align:middle line:84%
Wear your hair matted,
long, and ostentatious.

00:01:21.640 --> 00:01:25.630 align:middle line:84%
But when, deep inside you,
there is a loaded gun--

00:01:25.630 --> 00:01:28.470 align:middle line:90%
how can you have god?

00:01:28.470 --> 00:01:32.343 align:middle line:90%
