There are differences of opinion among scholars about the birth of Brahm Giani Shiromani Bhagat Namdev Ji. Marathi, English and Hindi scholars give different dates. Bansidhar Shastri Namdev was born in 1363 AD. It is said to have happened in Prof. VB Patwardhan, Dr. Bhandarkar, Dr. Nikal McLicol and Bhagat Ram 1370 AD. They write that he was born in Dr. Garsa-de-Tassi 1278 Mohan Singh Diwana this year 1390 AD. They write G. Gurdit Singh in his book History of Sri Guru Granth Sahib proves him to be a contemporary of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, whom Dr. Atar Singh, S. Narendra Singh Soch etc. have rejected it. On this dispute, Dr. Avtar Singh published his book Nirgun-Kawi and Bhagat Namdev. Amandeep, 235 Antarjami Colony Amritsar, while discussing ideas, has written on pages 56 and 57 that Bhai Gurdas ji narrated the incident of Bhagat Kabir ji receiving the instruction of ‘Ram Naam’ from Ramanand ji in the 15th step of the 10th time of Bhai Gurdas ji. is If Kabir ji or Namdev ji had met Guru Nanak Dev ji, then Bhai Gurdas ji would have mentioned it at this time. In 1372-73 of Guru Granth Sahib, there is testimony of Namdev-Trilochan dialogue.
