God Kabir 1398 - 1518 CE
Supreme God Kabir is the creator God. This is an undeniable fact. Kabir is translated as "Great" and this is another reason why the name of Supreme God remains hidden. This however, does not undermine the fact that the name of Supreme God is Kabir. This God Kabir appeared in 1398 CE as an infant in Varanasi and became renowned as Sant (Saint) Kabir. He ventured the earth for 120 years and departed in 1518 CE to his immortal abode Satlok.
During his tenure on earth, God Kabir left ample evidence in his speech that he was God Himself. This was bound into a Holy Scripture called Kabir Sagar. Later on Kabir Bijak was made out of it. Kabir Sagar is still available but is adulterated. To compensate for this, God Kabir appeared again in 1727 CE and met Garib Das ji and gave him the entire knowledge again. Garib Das ji managed to get the whole knowledge bound into a single scripture called Sat Granth Sahib of Garib Das ji. This scripture is full with the utmost divine knowlege about everything spiritual possible. It is a highly revered scripture.
God Kabir is Immortal
One of the famous hymns of God Kabir is explicit in proving that God Kabir is the master of the universe and is Immortal.
Once God Kabir had a meeting with Gorakhnath. Gorakhnath finally yielded and asked God Kabir his age. In reply, God Kabir sang the following hymn.
Jo boojhe soii baavra, kya hai umar humaari |
Asankh yug prlay gaii, tab ke brahmchaari ||tek||
Koti Niranjan ho gaye, parlok sidhaari | Hum to sadaa mehboob hain, svayam brahmchaari ||
Arbon to Brahma gaye, unanchaas koti Kanhaiya |
Saat koti Shambhu gaye, mor ek nahin palaiya ||
Kotin Narad ho gaye, Muhammad se chaari |
Devtan ki ginti nahin hai, kya srishti vichaari ||
Nahin buda nahin baalak, naahin koi bhaat bhikhaari |
Kahain Kabir sun ho Gorakh, yeh hai umr humaari ||
English translation:
He who asks my age, is insane.
Infinite dissolutions have passed, I have always remained.
Ten million Niranjan (Kaal/Devil) have perished, I am however Immortal.
Billions of Brahma have died and 490 million Vishnus.
70 million Shambhus (God Shiv) have died, but not a moment has passed for me.
Tens of millions of diety Narad have passed away and countless Mohammad and his caliphs.
Countless gods have died, what basis does this creation have.
I am neither aged nor a child, nor am I a singer or a beggar
Says Kabir hear, O Gorakh; such is my age.
