His writings significantly influenced the Bhakti movement. Some of his famous writings include \u2018Sakhi Granth\u2019, \u2018Anurag Sagar\u2019, \u2018Bijak\u2019 and \u2018Kabir Granthawali\u2019. He also founded a religious community named \u2018Kabir Panth\u2019 whose members are referred to as \u2018Kabir Panthis\u2019, implying the followers of Kabir Das.
