The spiritual path of the Saints starts from the eye center, a point between and behind the two eyes. Kabir calls it a star, a petal and the door for going within, and says that the Master is also within the disciple's eye center. When the disciple withdraws his consciousness from the body and enters the eye center, he takes the first step in his inner spiritual journey.

On going further, he meets his Master in his radiant or Shabd form. This form is not physical, it is the Master's spiritual form, which he projects from the Shabd. In his Shabd form the Master is always present within the disciple. This is what Kabir means when he says that the Master is "between the eyes". From here onwards the Master accompanies the disciple on his inner journey to the higher spiritual regions. He is the disciple's true friend and well-wisher because he neither leaves the disciple at the time of death nor even afterwards. He is always with him in his Shabd form and leads him to the home of Shabd — the abode of the Lord.

Between the two eyes is the Master,
The messenger of the Lord.
Between the black and the white moles
Is the shining star,
And within the star dwells
That unknown and unseen Lord.

Between the eyes is the Master,
The messenger of God.

Between the eyes shines
A tiny petal,
And within the petal
Is the hidden door;
On that door adjust
Your telescope,
Thus with ease go across
The world's deadly sea.

Between the eyes is the Master,
The messenger of God.

In the city of Sunn
I reside, O friend,
Where resounds the melody
In its all-pervading force.
Now the Master and Kabir
Are eternal companions,
And he leads Kabir within
To the mansion of Shabd.

Between the eyes is the Master,
The messenger of God.
