Madhavacharya (1986)

This movie is part of the triolgy of G.V.Iyer. His other works include 'Adi Sankaracharya' and 'Ramanujacharya'. This low budget movie has been completed with good historic accuracies of the date and time. In fact it looks like a documentary of sort. To understand the theme however, a deeper knowledge of the Indian philosophy is needed. As such this movie is made on one of the three greatest saints and philosophers of India in the past 2000 years! To put it in a nut shell, Madhvacharya was a saint around the time 11-12 century approximately who preached the 'Dwitha' (Two) concept. It meant that Human soul and He are not the same.

Well edited and around 2.5 hours which is perfect for this great man's life who was closely associated with the Ud...

Prime Minister Modi addressed the gathering via videoconferencing and evoked the names of saints and sages from Hindu, Sikh, Muslim and other traditions and their great deeds in stimulating India's social conscience from time to time. Contrary to the vague colonial and neo-colonial notion many of us grew up learning in our schools that our religious thinkers were often concerned only with "otherworldly" affairs like reincarnation and salvation, the legacy of India's saints and devotees has always been connected with concerns about the real lives of people. I learned about Madhvacharya primarily through my father, and my extended family. Our traditional family deities were Krishna, Venkateshwara, and preeminent saints from the Dvaita tradition like Sri Raghavendra Swami. My aunts, Indira Jaya Rao and Malathi Padmanabha Rao were great exponents and teachers of Carnatic music, and sang the songs of the Dasaras, the Dvaita-inspired popular-devotional (bhakti) singers from the days of the Vijayanagara empire. Later, my father and mother became devotees of an unconventional deity, a living god as it were. He was a child of a simple peasant family from a poor Indian village who said he was an incarnation of Shiva and Shakti, and my father, a devout Madhva, had no qualms in accepting him, and treating him with the...
