Kabir (1398-1456 AD)
As he revolves his rosary,
Life passes away,
and he knows no secret of his heart.
Throw away the rosary of the hand
and resolve the rosary of the mind.
--Kabir
Kabir (1398-1456 AD) was a revolutionary and above all a great humanist. Although six hundred years have passed since his birth, the charm of his poetry and significance of his message still thrill the heart and kindle the minds of hundreds of thousands.
Kabir is the most revered name in Indian tradition, from Punjab to Bengal and from Himalayan frontier to the Deccan, he is acknowledged as a great poet (he has been called 'the Father of Hindi Poetry')
In fact, in India itself, Kabir has been more quoted and admired than seriously studied.
