About this ebook

Who was Kabir, and how can readers approach the songs transmitted under his name without treating every attribution as certain? This original English study examines nirguna devotion, the guru, longing, caste, religious labels, gender, mortality, and compassion across the Bijak, Kabir Granthavali, and Sikh scriptural traditions. Eighteen focused chapters pair source-aware interpretation with new contemporary examples and substantive objections. The book distinguishes Kabir's devotional language from modern ethical applications, includes a defined glossary and a source map, and does not reproduce or claim to translate his poetry.
