can you imagine when irked by spite you can blossom so that generatin after generation can benefitit with the outcome. Any guesses. Hint vd. Yes vd.
This is what exactly happened to Sri Vedanta Desikar. Out of spite some people irked him and the outpourings of the great poet Saint was so profound in every way that generations and generations of humanity live by what he has written. Can one even try to imagine how he would have reacted to a humble and respectful request. But as we very well know people of the caliber that V D had were always heady and strong. It I'll defines our author yet if one tries to imagine. The situation of the ancient times where chaos reigned in every sphere of life. The impact such authors as V D made was so great it was no less than a miracle not possible by normal standards. Be it the verse writing as challenge or prayer to bless an ardent student to get the goddess to rain gold coins, to build a well/ temple out of uneven bricks, to make a life consistent statue which bled, can one imagine too such a character as this not humanly possible why our super man and spider man fade in comparison. Should we the srivaishnavite community then not be proud of such a person in our ansistry. We the followers of such a man are blessed indeed. It is surprising g that so little literature is available on the author though he is the one who has contributed the most no of works. Being followed today. It I'll defines us if we do not put such a great one on a pedestal and worship him. He did not require a computer to sort out his work under different headings chapter wise it just flowed from him in a disaplined manner. What a strong character and principled being (too harsh a word to call him man) he was God incarnate. Priceless are his works yet when one sees his work published and translated in various languages selling for a pittance (though it may be so that every one be encouraged to buy and read his works) we should be duty bound to popularise such works and authors poets. It should be ingrained in every one like a chip being imbedded in humans as is the custom now, there would be no need for a pacemaker the fever created by the life and works of such great beings should be enough to last for a long life to be able to read even once in our life time the works authored by them.
