Guru Nanak gives a clue I think, on Ang 22. ਮੁਇਆ ਜਿਤੁ ਘਰਿ ਜਾਈਐ ਤਿਤੁ ਜੀਵਦਿਆ ਮਰੁ ਮਾਰਿ ॥
mueiaa jith ghar jaaeeai thith jeevadhiaa mar maar ||
To reach your True Home after you die, you must conquer death while you are still alive.
Kabir is not dead, for he lives in the " Lord's Love." The world around him is dead to him, he is not longer attached to it. Why mourn? He remains quite alive, even when his body is dead to him, and the doctor, who cannot cure the disease of life and death, is dead to him, and the whole world is lies dead to him, because he is one who lives in the Lord's Love.

Once more in the selokas Kabir demonstrates he is master of poetic irony. A contrast or discrepancy between what is said and what is meant or between what happens and what is expected to happen in life and in literature. In verbal irony, characters say the opposite of what they mean. In irony of circumstance or situation, the opposite of what is expected occurs... http://novella.mhhe.com/sites/0072405228/student_view0/poetic_glossary.html
Kabir says he does what he pleases. And who would expect that it would please him to invite death? But Kabir gets what he wants. He overcomes the fear of death by freely inviting death itself.  | | The following members appreciate Narayanjot Kaur Ji for the above message. | |
