Ramanand

Ramanand
(1399-1448?)
   Born at Prayag (later Allahabad) in 1399, he became a disciple of Raghavananda of Ramanuja's Sri sect. To broaden his outlook, he traveled extensively. In his teach-ings, Ramanand substituted the worship of Rama for that of Vishnu and taught bhakti to all the four varnas (castes). He admitted disci-ples from all castes, both sexes, and also Muslims. Kabir, Raidas, Dhana, and Saindas are included among his disciples.
