Meerabai, The Poetess & Saint

Hi friends,

Meerabai is known to every Indian and needs no introduction.

She was born as a Rajashtani Princess and was married to Rana Bhoj. She dedicated her life to God (Girdhar) after enduring the trials and tribulations of her life in the royal palace with her war mongering father and husband. Her quest to find inner peace is set at a time when music and poetry was at its zenith in India. During her time there were music legends like Tansen, Baiju Bawra and Swami Haridas. Through her music and devotion to God she also met the great spiritual leaders of the day like Kabir, Tulsidas and Raidas. She was given a cup of poison by her husband which she drank without any fuss!

Here is the picture of a girl posing like Meerabai. She is wearing a ready to wear stitched Saree and is holding a musical instrument in her one hand. She can have a pair of Chipni in her other hand.
