Thanks to Miss Hepburn and the references to the "unstruck strings" of Kabir.
Guru Nanak also wrote on this, or the Name of God as Lumpino says:
“The Lord placed the soul in the body’s cave,
And the breath held the Music of Life.
He made each body with nine gates,
With the Tenth Gate remaining well hid.
And the Tenth Door was opened to him
Who truly loved the Guru’s wisdom.
And there lives the Lord in His myriad forms,
as well as the nine treasures of the Name.
His limit cannot be found.
“Says Nanak, the Lord placed the soul in the
body’s cave and the breath held the Music of Life.
“Listen to this Song of Bliss, you blessed ones,
And all your heart’s longings shall be fulfilled.
You will reach the Transcendent Lord, and
your sorrows will depart.
All afflictions and sorrows are destroyed
at the Sound of the True Word,
And my friends, the saints were in ecstasy when
the perfect Guru revealed it.
Those who speak and those who listen are pure,
And they see the All-pervading Lord everywhere.
Nanak prays: Attaching to the feet of the Guru,
The mind is filled with the divine Music of the Spheres.”
Peace
