Brother, ask the caste of the loom I’m turning.
Brahma the plank below;
Vishnu the festoon;
Shiva the standing support;
The two spikes standing behind Shiva are the thread-makers.
The spindle is awareness.
When turned with the hand called devotion the thread wound round, the spindle filled out.
I cannot rotate the loom, myhusband bangs me.
What shall I do,
Kadira Remmiyodeya Gummeshwara? [1]
She worshipped Guru, Linga and Jangama through her kāyaka. She lived in 12th Century (around 1160). Only 4 vachanas of Remmavve are extant. Two of her vachanas deal with huband-wife motif and the other one is about the significance of kāyaka. Out 4 vachanas 3 are riddles and one is simple
Most of what she earned through her kāyaka she spent in her dāsoha activities spending only a meagre amount on her own subsistence. She appears to have devoted her life to the community. She has claimed that she became liberated from the mundane life when her own physical body was transformed into Basava.
