Sri Tyagaraja, the eighteenth-century saint musician of south India, has a permanent place in Indian history and culture. He was not only a musical genius but a saint who had the vision of God and who sang His praise in sweet melody. His songs were composed in Telugu, his mother tongue. This book, written and compiled by the late C. Ramanujachari, gives a valuable description of the saint?s life and contains translations of all of his known songs.
What the world wants today is twenty men and women who can dare to stand in the street yonder and say that they possess nothing but God. Who will go? Why should one fear? If this is true, what else could matter? If it is not true, what do our lives matter?
