Throughout his life Gandhiji was an ardent advocate of village reconstruction. He believed that if the villages perished India would perish too. He directed his energies into reviving the arts and industries of villages. His ideal village was one that contained intelligent human beings who did not live in dirt and darkness. They would be free and able to hold their own against anyone in the world.There would be no plague or cholera or smallpox. No one would be idle or wallow in luxury. There would be village artists, village poets, linguists and research workers.Gandhiji lived for the villages, His ideal village and his dreams were synonymous. He made people take to the charka, the spinning of cotton yarn as a visible symbol of village regeneration. He wrote and spoke about the revival of spinning being profitable to villagers who, for four months every year sat idle and spinning would make them economically viable. He has written about the usability and beauty of khaddar and its soft unevenness.
