MAHINDRA KABIRA FESTIVAL

Every year, as winter arrives, we celebrate the infinite wisdom of the 15th-century mystic poet, Kabir, in a city 'older than history, older than tradition, older even than legend', Varanasi. For the past seven years, when the weather turns nippy, we spend three memorable days soaking in Kabir’s syncretic philosophy – with music, literature, and discourse - on the banks of the eternal river, Ganga.

The upcoming edition of the Mahindra Kabira Festival, will include a plethora of classical and folk music, talks, art demonstrations, the characteristic Kabira boat rides, a delectable local food journey and the quintessential Ganga Arati experience. Heritage walks will unlock the lanes, the shops & sights of this incredible city for our delegates.

For Mahindra Kabira Festival Delegates, the experience is like embracing the ‘Kabir’ way of life, finding that elusive peace which we constantly seek in the endless humdrum of our routine existence.
