Sant Kabir was a great devotee of Lord Rama. He lived in the holy city of Kasi around the 14th century. His poems, which are full of practical wisdom, teachings and devotion, are sung in numerous households and taught in schools in India even today.
Sant Kabir’s life is full of wonder and mysticism. It seems as though a self-realized soul was sent by God to spend a lifetime on Earth to teach people practical religious wisdom at a time when religion was reduced to mere formalities and ritualism by the priests and mullahs.
Kabir was found as a baby by the Mohammedan family of Neru and Nima, who adopted him and raised him as their son. From childhood Kabir was religiously inclined. Devotion to God came naturally to him. He got initiated into the sacred Rama Mantra by Sri Ramananda, a great saint of those times. He had enormous faith in the name of God and prescribed it as a remedy for all problems.
Kabir led a very active life, being in the world but not getting attached to it. His mind was always fixed on God. He made his livelihood as a weaver. He was a powerful self-realized saint and lived and preached the Truth without fear or restraint. Many people were attracted to him and they gathered around him at the loom or in the marketplace to listen to his sweet, soul-stirring and sublime songs and inspiring discourses.
Kabir preached the unity of all men and creeds. He was loved by both the Mohammedans and the Hindus. He performed many miracles too. His followers even today follow the sect called “Kabir panth”.
Kabir’s works are mostly collections of songs. His language is very simple and his style beautiful. He has captured a world of meaning into small couplets (called Dohas) which are on the tongues of most Indians to this day.

Kabir was the first, the first to imbibe a pluralistic tradition in his teachings and poetry, the first to transcend both Hinduism and Islam. Many were to follow in his foot steps….Akbar, Dara Shikoh, Amir Khusro…., but Kabir was the first to win the hearts and souls of the people who mattered – the common people of this land.An illiterate, he spoke of the highest esoteric truths in a simple language. A simplicity that the ‘learned’ pundits and maulvis are incapable of. One can see the synretistic reflections of Advaita theology and intense and personal passion of Islamic mysticism in his spontaneous compositions.Indian sufis in Delhi, Agra and Kashmir were reading his poetry during the rule of Jehangir and Shah Jahan. He was a predecessor of Guru Nanak, the founder of Sikh religion and the sacred Guru Granth Sahib contains a substantial number of Kabir’s verses.
I am very much delighted to have this blog for reading.Truly 4 sure a saint can change ur Life…
Kabir was never a devotee of Lord Rama, as your blog says. He was the devotee of Nirguna Brahma, the param soul which has no shape & size but it is in all of us.
Kabir, in his poems, has symbolized the Nirguna Brahma as Rama, Mother, Husband an Lover- all those who are dear & near to our hearts. He has done so only to make the people understand his verses. The people in his time were mostly illiterate.
Kabir war more a social reformer than a saint. He was a great soul!
Thank you.I was useful
Thankyou. it was useful
I’m part of an organization in Detroit called Interfaith Partners. I’ve written a book called Interfaith Heroes which was so successful that I have written Interfaith Heroes, Vol. 2, which we plan to release in December or January.
I included a chapter in the book about Kabir. I would like to include the picture which I took from your website. May we have permission to use that picture?
What would be the cost, if any? Interfaith Partners is a non-profit organization with a very small budget. If you provide the photo at no cost we would be honored to send you a complimentary copy of the new book. Please let us know which address to mail it to.
Thank you.
