Kabir

Indian religious poet and teacher, a leader of the bhakti movement. He rejected the external practices of Islam and Hinduism to teach a simple, direct faith in the one God, attracting many followers from among both Hindus and Muslims.

Kabire was born a Muslim in Varanasi and lived as an illiterate weaver. The first Sikh guru, Nanak, was influenced by Kabir's message. Kabir's present-day Hindu followers number about 4 million.
