History & Civics
Answer
The Bijak is the compilation of the verses of Kabir. Kabir was an oral poet, whose works were written by others. The Bijak is preserved by the Kabirpanthis (the followers of Kabir) in Varanasi and elsewhere in Uttar Pradesh.
Two sections into which Bijak is divided are:
- Sakhi — composed in Doha or couplet form.
- Ramaini — written in the form of chaupai and is usually based on musical raga.
