Namdev was a contemporary of the famous saint Gyandev of Maharashtra. He composed hymns in Marathi and some of his verses were included in the Guru Granth Sahib. It is believed that Namdev was a part of Bhagwan Krishna.

God's name was always on the lips of Bhagat Namdev Ji. Under the influence of saint Jnanadeva, Namdev was converted to the path of bhakti. Vitthala of Pandharpur was now the object of his devotion and he spent much of his time in worship and kirtan, chanting mostly verses of his own composition.

His devotion was purely of the non-attributional absolute. He also considers God to be immanent, everywhere, in all hearts, and the Creator of everything. Like Kabir and the Sufis, Namdev is very otherworldly . He said, "The strength of contempt of the world should be in the body an unchanging companion.

नामदेव हिन्दी में पढ़ें

संत कबीर दास 15वीं शताब्दी के भारतीय रहस्यवादी कवि और संत थे। उनके लेखन ने हिंदू धर्म के भक्ति आंदोलन को प्रभावित किया। वह एक निराकार सर्वोच्च ईश्वर में विश्वास करते थे और यह भी कहते थे कि मुक्ति का एकमात्र मार्ग भक्ति है। उन्होंने मनुष्य के भाईचारे के पाठ का भी प्रचार किया। वे जाति व्यवस्था के समर्थक नहीं थे।
