The misinterpreters of the vedas are compared to the
blind while the vedas are compared to the precious pearls
and stones. Just as the blind string together the precious
jewels, etc., without any regard to their quality, so also
the mayāvadins interpreted the vedas without any regard to
the supremacy of Lord Sri Visņu and the place of other
gods and goddesses according to gradation.
 
VERSE 38
 
Śrī Vayu's incarnation as Madhva was undertaken
with the express purpose of refuting all the (twenty one)
wrong doctrines expressed by the various HTS including
Samkara and of propagating the correct interpretation of
the vedas and Brahma sūtras. Sri Väyu was commanded
by the Lord to incarnate as Madhva. When Madhva met
the Lord at Badarikaśrama and expressed his desire to serve
Him there, the Lord commanded him to go back and
propagate the right message for the good of the f
souls. Reference may be made to Madhva Vijaya (VIII-46)
= easy or faultless work.
