The Väyu Stuti of Trivikrama Panditācārya holds a
most honoured and hallowed place in Madhva Sampradaya.
It is a paean of 41 verses in sragdhara metre glorifying
the three avatars of Sri Vayu - Hanuman, Bhima and Madhva.
As Pandit Śrī M. Rama Rao points out in his Foreword,
"Sri Vayu's superiority over all other gods is established
in five of the ten upanishats and Balittha Sūkta, etc, sing
his glories."
Trivikrama Pandita, the author of this powerful work,
was a native of Kavu, a formidable champion of advaita
and a court-poet of the ruler of Kumbla. His historic
debate with Sri Madhva, his defeat at his hands and his
conversion to Dvaita are lucidly described in Madhva
Vijaya. The Puraścaraṇa of Vayu Stuti yields all secular
and spiritual benefits according to Vyasaraja and Vādirāja.
The powerful efficacy of this work was felt by Jagannatha-
dāsa, Adavi Ācārya, Kūrma Tirtha and others. The present
edition of this work contains the original text with English
translation, transliteration and short explanatory notes on
each verse containing additional information.
