The major ideas expressed by Kabir were:
- Kabir'* teachings were based on a complete, indeed vehement, rejection of the major religious traditions.
- His teachings openly ridiculed all forms of external worship of both Brahmanical Hinduism and Islam, the pre-eminence of the priestly classes and the caste system.
- Kabir believed in a formless Supreme *** and preached that the only path to salvation was through bhakti or devotion.
Kabir expressed his ideas using the language of his poetry, which was a form of spoken Hindi widely understood by common people. He also wrote verses called sakhis and dohas which are still popular among people today.
