dharmadas bandhavagadh ke rahane vale aur jati se baniye the. balyavastha se hi dharmadas ke hriday men bhakti ka ankur tha aur ye sadhuon ka satsng, darshan, pooja, tirthatan adi kiya karate the. mathura se lautate samay kabiradas ke sath inaka sakshatkar hua. un dinon snt samaj men kabir ki poori prasiddhi ho chuki thi. kabir ke mukh se moortipooja, tirthatan, devarchan adi ka khndan sunakar inaka jhukav 'nirgun' sntamat ki or hua. ant men ye kabir se saty nam ki diksha lekar unake pradhan shishyon men ho ge aur snvath 1575 men kabiradas ke paralokavas par unaki gaddi inhin ko mili.
- kabir ke shishy
kahate hain kabiradas ke shishy hone par inhonne apani sari snpatti, jo bahut adhik thi, luta di. ye kabiradas ki gaddi par 20 varsh tak lagabhag rahe aur atynt vriddh hokar inhonne sharir chhoda. inaki shabdavali ka bhi snton men bada adar hai. inaki rachana thodi hone par bhi kabir ki apeksha adhik saral bhav lie hue hai, usamen kathorata aur karkashata nahin hai. inhonne 'poorabi bhasha' ka hi vyavahar kiya hai. inaki anyoktiyon ke vynjak chitr adhik marmik hain kyonki inhonne 'khndan mndan' se vishesh prayojan n rakh prematatv ko lekar apani vani ka prasar kiya hai. dharmadas ke kuchh pad hain -
jhari lagai mahaliya gagan ghaharay.
khan garajai, khan bijali chamakai, lahari uthai shobha barani n jay.
sunn mahal se amrit barasai, prem annd hnai sadhu nahay
khuli kevariya, miti andhiyariya, dhani sataguru jin diya lakhay.
dharamadas binavai kar jori, sataguru charan men rahat samay
mitoo madaiya sooni kari gailo
apana balam parades nikari gailo, hamara ke kichhuvau n gun dai gailo.
jogin hoike main van van dhoondhau, hamara ke birah bairag dai gailo
sng ki sakhi sab par utari gilin, ham dhani thadhi akeli rahi gailo.
dharamadas yah araju karatu hai, sar sabad sumiran dai gailo
