We open Javed Akhtar's Seepiyaan — his anthology of Kabir and Tulsidas dohe — with two of Kabir's most piercing couplets: one on the hypocrisy of appearances (the heron vs. the crow), and one on a heart empty of prem. This tradition lives on only if it's carried forward — pick up Seepiyaan and pass these words on. Hosted by Kshitij Kawatra and Burair Ashary.
