Jamshedpur: Rekhta Learning, a premier platform dedicated to Indian languages and literature, has launched a new online course titled “Understanding Kabir – Life, Poetry, and Philosophy”, offering a deep dive into the legacy of the 15th-century mystic poet-saint Kabir.
Famed for his fearless dohas and spiritual wisdom, Kabir’s poetry continues to resonate across centuries, challenging social norms and urging people towards inner awakening. Through this new course, Rekhta Learning aims to introduce Kabir’s timeless philosophy to a new generation of learners.
“Kabir isn’t just a figure of the past — he speaks directly to the concerns of today,” said a spokesperson from Rekhta Learning. “His vision of love, truth, and unity offers powerful tools for reflection in our fractured world.”
The course explores Kabir’s life journey, spiritual practices, and major poetic forms including dohe, pad, saakhi, and more. It examines how Kabir’s Bhakti was rooted in personal devotion and love, untouched by rigid rituals and religious formalism.
Designed for students, educators, poetry lovers, and spiritual seekers alike, the course is accessible online and aims to be a bridge between historical wisdom and contemporary questions.
In an era where questions of identity, belonging, and meaning dominate personal and public life, Rekhta Learning sees Kabir not just as a poet but as a voice of radical simplicity and spiritual clarity. The course is now live and can be accessed at: rekhtalearning.com.
A venture of the Rekhta Foundation, Rekhta Learning offers an engaging catalogue of online courses on Urdu, poetry, storytelling, and South Asian literary heritage. The platform is committed to making literary and cultural education accessible to a global audience.
