Sir
At UAS Foundation day, you gave an excellent speech in Kannada. You quoted Tyagaraja’s endaro mahanubhavulu andareeki vandanamu. My music teacher Vidushi Shachi Devi gave me the spiritual interpretation of this keerthana. Tyagaraja further has defined who can be a Mahanubhava, which implies all are not and cannot be Mahanubhavas…For example he says, jagamellanu sudhadrishthi che brochuva rendaro mahanubhavulu, those who view this entire world with sudha drishti are …. Further he has even listed the names of mahanubhavas:
Parama bhagavatha mouni (vyasa)
Varashashi (moon)
Vibhakara (sun)
sanaka sanandana (the ashwini kumaras)
Digeesha (dikpalaka)
surakimpurusha
Kanaka kashipu sutha (son of hiranyakashipu – Prahlada)
narada
thumburu
pavana soonu (hanuman)
bala chandra dhara (lord shiva)
shuka (son of Vyasa)
saroja bhava (bramha)
bhoosura varulu
These are mahanubhavas since they all the time have the spiritual experience of Bramhananda.
Sincerely
MG Chandrakanth
