“No one knows the secret of the weaver
who spread his warp through the universe.
He dug two ditches, sky and earth,
made two spools, sun and moon,
filled his shuttle with a thousand threads,
and weaves till today: a difficult length!
Kabir says, they’re joined by actions.
Good threads and bad, that fellow weaves both.”
- Kabir

Today the effects of globalisation have changed the structure of economy.
Thousands of looms in Varanasi have fallen silent in the last decade;
cheap, bad quality imitations have flooded the market and left weavers and traders in despair.
