Description

O Companion that abode is unmatched,
where my complete Beloved is.

In that place there is no happiness or unhappiness,
No Truth or untruth
Neither sin nor Virtue.
There is no day or night, no moon or sun,
There is radiance without Light.

There is no knowledge or meditation
No repetition of mantra or austerities,
Neither speech coming from Vedas or Books.
Doing, not-doing, holding, leaving
All these are lost too in this place.

No home, no homeless, neither outside or inside,
Micro and Macrocosm Are Non-Existent.
Five Elemental Constituents and the Trinity are both not there
Witnessing un-struck Shabad Sound is also not there.

No root or flower, neither branch or seed,
Without a tree fruits are adorning,
Primordial Om sound, breath-synchronized Soham,
This and That - All are absent, the Breath too unknown

Where the Beloved is there is utterly nothing
Says Kabir I have come to realize.
Whoever sees my indicative sign
Will accomplish the goal of Liberation - Kabir

This is open ocean on Pailolo Channel on the north shore.
The Pailolo Channel separates the islands of Molokaʻi and Maui.
Although the channel is only about 8.4 miles at its shortest point, it is one of the windiest and roughest in the Hawaiian Islands and part of the Eight Seas . . . .

Eight Seas or Nā Kai 'Ewalu are a poetic reference to the channels that link the major Hawaiian islands together.

These include the following:

1. 26-mile Kaiwi Channel, meaning "the bone", between Moloka'i and O'ahu
2. 8.8-mile Au'au Channel, meaning "bathe", between Maui and Lāna'i
3. 9.3-mile Kalohi Channel, meaning "the slowness", between Lāna'i and Moloka'i
4. 7-mile Alalākeiki Channel, meaning "child's wail" between Maui and Kaho'olawe
5. 8.4-mile Pailolo Channel, meaning "pai (lift), oloolo (shifting), between Maui and Moloka'i
6. 17-mile Kaulakahi Channel, meaning "the single flame" between the islands of Kaua'i and Ni'ihau
7. 17-mile Kealaikahiki Channel, meaning "the way to foreign lands", between Kaho'olawe and Lāna'i
8. 32-mile Alenuihāhā Channel, meaning "great billows smashing", between Hawai'i and Maui
9. 72-mile Ka'ie'iewaho Channel or the Kaua'i Channel, meaning "outer ka'ie'ie" named after a vine between O'ahu and Kaua'i)

. . it is a gorgeous beach with the most beautiful and luxurious deep golden sand . .
. . . Aloha . . .
