kabir

image of Saint Kabir mystic poet

संत कबीर 

Kabir lived in Benares, India in the 15th century.
He was a weaver, a free-thinker and mystic, and opposed
ritualism and false piety. Kabir's own religious identity was ambiguous.
He was non-denominational as well as multi-denominational.
His followers included both Hindus and Muslims.
He was a leading figure in the Bhakti movement.
He wrote a large number of poems and songs in simple Hindi,
which are still sung across north India even today,
especially by the common folk.
The Sikhs' holy book, the Guru Granth Sahib,
includes several of Kabir's teachings.
