Kabirpanthis are
the followers of
Kabir and his
teachings. Kabir
lived in the
fifteenth century
CE and was pre-
eminent among
the Sants or poet-
saints. Kabir
attempted to
transcend the
religious
boundaries of
northern India
and to promote
harmony between
Hinduism, Islam,
and other non-
Hindu religions.
In this he was a
forerunner of
Ramakrishna and
Gandhi. His
eclectic faith
focused on bhakti,
devotion to God.
Kabir was a
master of the
"interior religion,"
which was loving
surrender to God
who dwelt in the
heart. Names of
God tend to be
Vaishnava, for
Kabir's guru was
Ramananda. But
though Kabir
often mentions
Ram, Hari, and
the "name of
Ram," he is using
these as names for
the all-pervading
Reality which is
beyond words and
"beyond the
beyond," being
identified with
sunya, the void, or
what Kabir calls
sahaj, the
ineffable state.
The satguru, the
perfect guru, is to
Kabir not
Ramananda but
the deity who
speaks within the
soul.
The most
important
doctrine of Kabir
is Sabda, the
Word. In
Vaishnava
teaching Sabda
includes both
divine inspiration
and the word of
the teacher.
Kabir's teaching
was purely oral,
with nothing
committed to
writing. The
Kabirvanis, the
words of Kabir,
were written after
his life and the
oldest dated
written record is
found in the Guru
Granth of the
Sikhs, compiled
about 1604. There
are two other
undated versions
of the Kabirvanis,
one compiled by
the Dadupanthis
of Rajasthan
about 1600 and
called the Kabir
Granthavali, and
the Bijak, a
version
popularised if not
compiled by the
Kabirpanthis in
Bihar.
The Sant religion
was a religion of
the heart, open to
all. Many Sants
were women and
Kabir himself was
a sudra, the
lowest caste.
Kabir rejected the
externals of
religion such as
Muslim prayer
and the Hajj, and
Hindu image
worship and
pilgrimage. He
deliberately chose
not to die in
Benares, his own
city. Kabir
attacked
brahmans and
yogins, seeing no
virtue in
asceticism,
fasting, and
almsgiving, and
he despised the
six schools of
Hindu philosophy.
He acknowledged
no caste
distinctions.
Despite Kabir's
opposition to
sectarianism,
after his death a
sect was formed
of his disciples
and followers.
The modern
Kabirpanthis
regard themselves
as Hindu. Kabir
himself is
generally thought
of as a Hindu. As
with all religious
movements,
doctrine and
practice has not
kept to the ideals
of the original
teacher. There is
some observance
of caste and an
elaborate ritual
for initiation.
