If you don't know proper sanskrit then which is the best source to read Vedas ( recommend some translations in hindi or in English)
How can you we find the major work of kabir ( in hindi is there any recommendation for reading of Kabir Ji)
@Kuldeep Kaushal for Kabir, please refer to the two books by prof purshottam Agarwal, namely athak Kahani prem ki (Hindi) & Kabir, Kabir (English)
Thank you so much
