Shree Vijayadasara P.D.-(Born 1682-1755) -(Chippagiri-2kms from Guntakal

Railway Junction)

 

After a lapse of 100 years after Sri Puranadara daasa, came Sri Vijayadasaru

to rejuvenate the Dasa Movement ; and his period is heralded as Vijaya Dasa

Yuga by one and all. Sri Madhwachary's doctrines and their subtitle are

well brought out in his keerthanas, Ugabhogas and Sulaadhis, His Sulaadhis

catch the imagination of one and all, and therefore he is popularly known

as 'Suladhi Daasaru'. Sri Vijaya Dasa was a great exponent in the science

of Numbers.

Sri Vijayadaasa very dexterously uses the numbers 2 to 8 avoiding number one

as it is in-auspicious and establishes Sri madhwachary's SidhDhamtha. In

the above SuLaadhi number 4 ( 3+1) is treated to explain the philosophy of

Sri Madhwa. He says one has to pray Vijaya vittala ( sri hari) the father

of Bramha. It is suggestive of Sri Madhwas Hari Sarvothamathwa. That Sri

Hari alone is supreme in the pantheon of Gods. He is Sat, Chit, Atma,

Ananada/ Suggests that he is BimbaRoopi and independent as Vishwa, Thaijasa,

Pragyna, Turya. We are His Prathi Bimbas entirely dependent on Him.

Ultimate Purushaartha is Moksha and therefore it would be attained by

Dharma, rtha, Kaama after Karma Kshaya, Utkramtha, Madrga, Bhiga. If

moksha is of four positions. Saroopya, Saalokya, Saameepya and Saayujya.

Jeeva Bramha bhedha continues to be there and Jeevas enjoy the eternal

bliss in their Swaroopa Dehaas. When it is understood that he alone

sanctions Moksha, He finally brings out the four types of deluges viz, Dhina

PraLaya, Yuga praLaya, Manu praLaya Bramha PraLaya. These events take place

in all the four yugas.

 

Noted Sudha pundit, Kallur Subbannaachar, after an incident, transformed

himself to be a Haridasa with the Ankita' Vyasa Vitala.

His composition

" Smarisi badukiro Divya charaNakeragiro|

duritha tharidu oreva Vijaya GurugaLembara||

 

Called Vijaya Kavacha - It is written in a lucid, chaste and flowing style.

It is so popular among kannada people and especially among the women-folk

that they daily sing in their homes. Also recited by many many Bhaktas in

their homes as well as at Chippagiri going round the Dasara Katte-

 

His intimacy with Lord Srinivaasa was such he was able to stop the

Rathotstva and god sent word for him to come and he sang

" Saagi baarayya Bhava Rogadha vaidyane

Baaguve ninage Chennagi Stuthisi Imdu||

 

Sri Vijayadasa was Brigu Maha muni in the previous avatara-

In Threta yuga, he was Suraleela and did Seva to Sri Ramachandra:

In Dwaapara Yuga he was Nikampa, a yadava doing Service to Sri Krishna-

In Kaliyuga , first he was born as a calf in the house of Sri Puranadaradasa

and later as his last son Madhwapathi. He fulfils his promise to his father

in completing 25000 krithis and completes the rest . As promised again, in

the next Janma as Sri Vijayadasaru-

Sri Vijayadasa also composed numerous Ugabhoga, Sulaadhi, which are recited

even now in all hindu families. Having lived for 74 years performed

Vaikunta yatra in 1755.
