Saint\nKabir was not only a great devotee but also a marvellous poet as well. Brought\nup in the home of a Muslim family, the early life of Saint Kabir is not clear\nto anyone. His parent’s details are not available anywhere and it is still\nunknown that when he took birth or when he died. Many people claim that Kabir\nlived through the phase of 1398 to 1448, while some say that he was here till\n1440-1518.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Born\nin the city of Banaras, Saint Kabir went on to become a disciple of Ramananda,\na great Hindu Ascetic. Many people called him as a Saint and many people called\nhim a Sufi, but through his verses, Kabir always said that he has come from the\nhome of God and God is always with that person who is on the path of\nrighteousness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kabir Life with his Guru<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Saint Kabir wanted to have someone as his Guru and he found Ramananda<\/a> as the person whom he could consider as his Guru. But living in a Muslim family, it was difficult for him to convince Ramananda to become his Guru, but he never gave up. He followed Ramananda and even hid near the Ganga when Ramananda went for a bath. One day, when Swami Ramananda was going for his bath in the early morning, he accidentally trod on the body of Kabir and chanted Ram! Ram! On hearing this, Kabir became really happy as he had found his Guru Mantra and thus convinced Ramananda to become his Guru. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kabir\u2019s Life and His Songs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Saint\nKabir lived a very simple life and he always said that he has been sent by God\nto free the people from the trap of Kaal Purush and take them to the place\nwhere they belong, their real abode – the Amarlok. Through his songs, poems and\nverses, Kabir has expressed his vision towards life, towards God and towards\nthe ultimate truth. Through his couplets, he has brought mystical emotions and\nused the metaphors and symbols of religion, but he never targeted any\nparticular religion or its beliefs in his poems. This quality of him made his\nsongs reach to masses and his work became popular and people followed his\nthoughts. This is the reason that even after so many centuries, his verses are\nvery popular and his legacy is continued with \u201cKabir Panth\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
