Dr Purushottam Agarwal who contextualized Kabir for our times, while keeping him well situated in his.
"We live in such times that everyone feels insecure which leads us to normalize violence. The violence does not disturb me, its acceptance does," he said.
"To understand Kabir, try and understand the man who does not speak English or are not as educated as you, but talk the common language. And listen to them with attention and respect," he said referring to the fact that Kabir was not a learned scholar but talked of the people, took from the people and gave back to them.
