Kailasavasa Gowrisha esha Thaila Dharenthe manasu kodu Hariyalli Shambo! -Sri Vijayadasaru

The greatest aproksha gyanin, Sri Vijayadasaru sings in praise of Sri Rudra, the one who is manoabhimani devatha. Without Rudra devara anugraha we cant get continuous bhakthi towards Lord Sri Hari. Hence our great dasaru prays ” O Sri Rudra, the one who lives in Kailasagiri,the one who is pathi of Sri Parvathi matha, please give Continuous bhakthi towards Lord Sri Hari without any disturbances,like the Oil which flows continuously from the thread(Thaila dhare).This is the speciality of Sri Vijayadasaru’s songs, his love and devotion to Lord is highly respected.

Sri Vijayadasaru has covered bharatha desha thrice(trivaram bhoo pradakshinam),same like Sri Rayaru mutt Swamigalu his holiness Sri Sri Surendra Tirtharu(gurugalu of Sri Vijayindra Swamigalu), who went country round thrice and did sthapana of dvaita philosophy. Sri Vijayadasaru is sakshat brigu amsha.He does know everything.He is an expert in all the languages,Sangeetha,Madhva sastra.

Sri Vijayadasaru is famous for his Suladhis.His Pancharatna suladhis are notable suladhis,which are very powerful if parayana is done with sincere bhakthi and divine faith. His Dhanvantari suladhi removes all our diseases, his Narasimha devara suladhi gives shakthi/dhairya,it wards off all the evils. His Durga suladhi removes Kama,krodha and fetches us the bhakthi towards Sri Durga devi(Sri Lakshmi) antharktha Sri Vijaya vittala and thats why he is rightly called us Suladhi dasar.

He has composed 25,000 Suladhis,dasarapadhas,Ugabhogas.His guru is none other than Sri Purandarasaru(who gave the ankita as Vijaya vittala.At Kasi,Purandaradasaru appeared before Vijayadasa&took him to Vyasasakshi to have dharsan of Lord Sri Vedavyasaru).

“Bakthiyalli Bhaganna, yukthiyalli Mohanna & sakthiyalli Thimmanna”- Bhaganna became the famous Haridasa called Sri Gopala Dasaru, Mohanna who was the foster son of Sri Vijaya Dasaru became Sri Mohana Dasaru and Thimmanna whose vairagya was highly evolved became Sri Venugopala Dasaru.All were the sincere disciples of Sri Vijayadasaru

As we know,Tamilnadu is very famous for ancient and historic temples.Our Vijayadasaru has visited most of the temples in Tamilnadu and composed many suladhis.

The below are some of those suladhis composed by this great dasaru at mentioned places. Thanks to Sri R.Sridharan for making the information available in Tamil, which was useful for me to translate it  to English in order to reach common devotees.
