This is a BIC Elsewhere event at Sabha: An Arts and Crafts Shaale

Kabir and other Bhakti and Sufi poets are constantly talking to us, as friends, as fellow seekers, as brothers and sisters. But what are they really saying?

This session explores the message of the mystics and engages in a dialogue with them, through songs, stories and reflections.

About BIC Elsewhere:

While the majority of our events find a home at our premises in Domlur, BIC Elsewhere represents our commitment to bringing conversations, arts, and culture directly to diverse audiences. Through this initiative, we collaborate with various venues, extending the reach of our events beyond our own space. These partnerships not only breathe life into our gatherings but also play a crucial role in cultivating an environment for the flourishing of arts and culture in the city.

In collaboration with:
