हमारे रे देस मांई ना बाणी नहीं खाणी
नहीं कोई वेद नहीं गीता
In this song Kabir imagines a country beyond all constructs - physical, social or religious. He dismisses even his own saakhi and shabad (couplets and songs) as irrelevant in this country. Such is the country that the guru has revealed in signs for Kabir.
This song could be seen as an echo of several poetic and philosophical expressions where the ultimate truth is indescribable in words and can only be arrived at by a series of negations. In Nirvana Shatakam, Shankara speaks of the vedantic idea of reaching ultimate reality through a series of 'neti-neti' or “not this, not that”. Buddhist philosopher Nagarjuna also describes supreme reality similarly in his verse Paramarthastava. Mystic poet Lal Ded says that Shiva is that which cannot be described. Perhaps all these poets and philosophers are reminding us that the truth we seek always exceeds the grasp of language - 'mukh par kahyo nahin jaaye'.

Meditative and mesmeric – these are the qualities of Mahesha Ramji’s music. Unhurried and not in an eager rush to please the public, Mahesha Ramji slows you down, and compels you to step into his rhythm. He belongs to Chhatangadh village near Jaisalmer in Rajasthan, and represents the folk style of the Meghval community, who are the traditional carriers of the poetry of many bhakti poets including Kabir, keeping it alive through a powerful oral tradition.
