Sant poets

Sant poets are spiritual writers from India’s Bhakti movement, particularly in regions like Punjab and Maharashtra. They emphasized a direct, personal connection with the divine, often expressing devotion through simple, heartfelt poetry. Their verses sought to transcend social barriers, promoting love, humility, and unity among people of all backgrounds. Notable Sant poets include Guru Nanak, the founder of Sikhism, and Mirabai, a revered devotee of Krishna. Their teachings continue to inspire spiritual seekers and emphasize the importance of inner devotion over formal rituals.
