Saints of South India - Part 1- Karnataka
Mystics and saints have existed in every part of India, and their teachings are one and the same. While RSSB has published a large number of books on mystics who lived in the North, this is the first one to deal with the life and teachings of mystics in the South. It focuses on three of them who wrote and spoke in Kannada, the most prominent language of the state of Karnataka. Two of them, Purandara Dasa and Kanaka Dasa, lived in the sixteenth century, and are quite well known all over South India. Purandara Dasa's keertanas are very popular, and form an integral part of Carnatic music. The third, Shishunala Sharif, is not as well-known as the other two, but his teachings are nevertheless very profound. His background and poetry reminds one of Kabir. Author: Dr. N. Subrahmanyam, P.
