The Kabir Project




I wanted to write about Kabir Project for a long time. This project tries to preserve and bring what Kabir really meant in his mystic songs.

Sufi singers had been singing the songs at festivals and other places. It's interesting to see that some families are doing it for generations (300-400 years) apart from their regular business.

One of the Sufi singer sings the following verse (of course in Hindi).

“O servant , where dost thou seek Me?

Lo! I am beside thee.

I am neither in temple nor in mosque…”


PS: If you have chance to see the documentaries, don't miss.
