    Verses ascribed to Kabir have been compiled in three distinct but overlapping traditions. The Kabir Bijak is preserved by the Kabirpanth (the path or sect of Kabir) in Varanasi and elsewhere in Uttar Pradesh, the Kabir Granthavali is associated with the Dadupanth in Rajasthan, and many of his compositions are found in the Adi Granth Sahib.

    Bijak is the best known of the compilations of the Kabir, and as such is the holy scripture for followers of the Kabirpanthi religion. The Bijak, an anthology of Kabir?s verses compiled in Eastern Uttar Pradesh and/or Bihar, is one of Kabir?s most influential works.In the case of the Guru Granth Sahib, Kabir?s poems were collected to be sung and are organized in ragas.
