to bathe. Shri Ramanand <strong>Ji</strong> was 104 years old. He had stopped the<br />
pretentious way of worship which other Pandits had started in Kaashi.<br />
Ramanand <strong>Ji</strong> used to advocate sadhna according to the scriptures<br />
and used to hold his 52 courts in the entire Kaashi. Ramanand <strong>Ji</strong><br />
used to preach sadhna based on the injunctions of Holy Gita <strong>Ji</strong> and<br />
Holy Vedas. He used to give jaap of ‘Om’ naam′. ′.<br />
That day also, when he went to Panch-Ganga Ghaat for bathing,<br />
at that time Kabir Sahib was lying on the steps. In the darkness of<br />
the Brahm-muhurat (moments just before sunrise) Ramanand <strong>Ji</strong><br />
failed to see Kabir Sahib. The khadaau (sandal) of Ramanand <strong>Ji</strong>’s<br />
feet hit Kabir Sahib’s head. KavirDev started crying like a child.<br />
Ramanand <strong>Ji</strong> bent down quickly to find out if the child was hurt and<br />
lifted him affectionately. At that moment the kanthi (garland) in<br />
Ramanand <strong>Ji</strong>’s neck came out and was put in Parmeshwar KavirDev’s<br />
neck. Ramanand <strong>Ji</strong> said, “Son, say ‘Ram-Ram’. All miseries are<br />
removed by Ram’s naam; son, say Ram-Ram”, and kept his hand<br />
over Kabir Sahib’s head. Kabir Sahib in a child form became quiet.<br />
Then Ramanand <strong>Ji</strong> started taking bath and thought that I will take<br />
the child to ashram. And will send him to whosoever he belongs.<br />
After taking bath, Ramanand <strong>Ji</strong> saw that the child is not there. Kabir<br />
Sahib disappeared from there and came in his hut. Ramanand <strong>Ji</strong><br />
thought that the child must have gone away, now where shall I look<br />
for him?<br />
God Kabir Acquiring Two Forms in Swami<br />
Ramanand <strong>Ji</strong>’s Ashram<br />
One day, a disciple of Swami Ramanand <strong>Ji</strong> was delivering<br />
discourse somewhere. Kabir Sahib went there. That Rishi <strong>Ji</strong> (sage)<br />
was narrating the tale of ShriVishnu Puran. He was saying that God<br />
Vishnu is the creator of the entire nature, he is the sustainer. He<br />
only is the Supreme Power who came as incarnation in Ram and<br />
Krishna form; he is unborn; Shri Vishnu <strong>Ji</strong> does not have any motherfather.<br />
Kavirishwar (Kavir God) listened to the whole account. After<br />
the satsang, Kabir Parmeshwar said, “Rishi <strong>Ji</strong>, can I ask you a<br />
question?” Rishi <strong>Ji</strong> said, “Yes son! Ask.” Hundreds of devotees were<br />
present there. KavirDev said that you were delivering the discourse
