Regarding the 16th-century Bhakti poet Mirabai, consider the following statements:
1. She was born into a royal family in Marwar and was married into the Sisodia royal family of Mewar.
2. She considered herself the spiritual bride of Lord Krishna and openly defied orthodox patriarchal and caste norms.
3. According to strong historical and literary traditions, she accepted the low-caste saint Ravidas as her spiritual guru.
Which of the statements given above are correct?

Question

Accepted Answer

All three statements are correct. Born in Merta (Marwar), she was married to Bhoj Raj (son of Rana Sanga of Mewar). She rejected royal comforts and norms, considering Krishna her true husband. She explicitly mentions Ravidas (a cobbler) as her guru in some of her poems, symbolizing a massive defiance of caste boundaries.
