Option 1: Kabir

Option 3: Ravidas

Option 4: Tukaram

The correct answer is option 1 Kabir. He was a weaver by profession. Kabir was a renowned mystic poet and saint who lived in India during the 15th century. He was born into a family of Muslim weavers and grew up practicing their trade. Despite being a weaver by profession, Kabir became famous for his spiritual and philosophical teachings, which blended elements from both Hinduism and Islam. He used simple and direct language in his poetry to convey his ideas about the nature of God, the soul, and the true path to enlightenment. Kabir`s teachings emphasized the importance of inner realization and direct experience of the divine, rather than mere religious rituals or external practices. His poetry is still widely read and revered in India and has had a significant influence on various religious and philosophical traditions.
