Share New Delhi: Kalinga Literary Festival hosted a special session with Prof. Purushottam Agarwal (writer and academic) and Prof. Babli Moitra Saraf (writer and academic) on his book ‘Kabir, Kabir: The life and work of the early modern poet’. Beginning with the session Prof. Babli Moitra Saraf quoted the book as ‘a great act of storytelling’. Prof. Purushottam stated, “Its a book about history of ideas, evolution of morality. Its core idea is individuality, moral choice and so on. My argument in this book is that the pre-British India was not a static society. I have given some detailed statement to internalization knowingly or unknowingly. If you find so much of Nathpanthi elements in Kabir, it is because his recent forefathers were recent converts from Nathpanth Yogis to Islam. If you find so much of Hinduism in Kabir, then certainly he had if not Bramhin but Hindu blood. If you find so much of Islam in his poetries, its because he was a Sufi.”
