Bhagat Kabir says this:
On SGGS 660, Bhagat Kabir clearly states that he only believes in the Universal Creator who permeates all :
ਰਾਗੁ ਧਨਾਸਰੀ ਬਾਣੀ ਭਗਤ ਕਬੀਰ ਜੀ ਕੀ
Rāg ḏẖanāsrī baṇī bẖagaṯ Kabīr jī kī
Raag Dhanasri, the bani of Bhagat Kabir
ੴ ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਪ੍ਰਸਾਦਿ ॥
Ik-oaʼnkār saṯgur parsāḏ.
There is only One All Pervading Akalpurakh, who is known with the blessings of the Satiguru.
ਸਨਕ ਸਨੰਦ ਮਹੇਸ ਸਮਾਨਾਂ ॥
ਸੇਖਨਾਗਿ ਤੇਰੋ ਮਰਮੁ ਨ ਜਾਨਾਂ ॥1॥
Sanak sanand mahes samānāʼn .
Sekẖnāg ṯero maram na jānāʼn. ||1||
In essence: Oh Prabh! Sanak, nand, Shiva and Sheshnaag didn’t know your secret.
ਸੰਤਸੰਗਤਿ ਰਾਮੁ ਰਿਦੈ ਬਸਾਈ ॥1॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
Sanṯsangaṯ rām riḏai basā-ī. ||1|| Rahā-o.
In Akalpurakh’s true devotees’ association, I keep Akalpurakh in my heart. Pause.
ਹਨੂਮਾਨ ਸਰਿ ਗਰੁੜ ਸਮਾਨਾਂ ॥
ਸੁਰਪਤਿ ਨਰਪਤਿ ਨਹੀ ਗੁਨ ਜਾਨਾਂ ॥2॥
Hanūmān sar garuṛ samānāʼn .
Surpaṯ narpaṯ nahī gun jānāʼn. ||2||
Oh Prabh! Hanuman, Gararh, the master of Devtas, Indra, Brahma and the master of men didn’t know your virtues (didn’t know Akalpurakh).
ਚਾਰਿ ਬੇਦ ਅਰੁ ਸਿੰਮ੍ਰਿਤਿ ਪੁਰਾਨਾਂ ॥
ਕਮਲਾਪਤਿ ਕਵਲਾ ਨਹੀ ਜਾਨਾਂ ॥3॥
Cẖār beḏ ar simriṯ purānāʼn .
Kamlāpaṯ kavlā nahī jānāʼn. ||3||
The four Vedas, the Simirities, the Pranas, Vishnu and Lakhsmi didn’t know you.
ਕਹਿ ਕਬੀਰ ਸੋ ਭਰਮੈ ਨਾਹੀ ॥
ਪਗ ਲਗਿ ਰਾਮ ਰਹੈ ਸਰਨਾਂਹੀ ॥4॥1॥
Kahi Kabīr so bẖarmai nāhī .
Pag lag rām rahai sarnāʼnhī. ||4||1||
(Who knows Akalpurakh then? Answer) Kabir says: That person who remains attached to Akalpurakh and stays in His refuge in utter humility doesn’t wander around.
Bhagat Kabir in this Shabda, very clearly states that for him no people, men or Devtas, matter but Akalpurakh. Thus, the Sikhs are to believe not any other power but the Universal Creator.
Wishes.
