We hope it not only does promote kannada but also teach us valuable lessons which we can use in daily life To support Kannada language as well as promote vachanas, we have released Akkamahadevi Vachanagalu. She is known to have considered the god Shiva ('Chenna Mallikarjuna') as her husband, (traditionally understood as the 'madhura bhava' or 'madhurya' form of devotion). She is in hindsight seen as an inspirational woman for Kannada literature and the history of Karnataka. Yet the term Akka ("elder Sister"), which is an honorific given to her by great Veerashaiva saints such as Basavanna, Siddharama and Allamaprabhu is an indication of her contribution to the spiritual discussions held at the "Anubhava Mantapa". She composed relatively fewer poems than other saints of the movement. Her 430 extant Vachana poems (a form of spontaneous mystical poems), and the two short writings called Mantrogopya and the Yogangatrividhi are considered her most notable contribution to Kannada literature. Akka Mahadevi (ಅಕ್ಕ ಮಹಾದೇವಿ) was one of the early female poets of the Kannada language and a prominent personality in the Veerashaiva Bhakti movement of the 12th century. ![]()
