the South. While passing through Maharashtra on the way back, he was honoured

by Madhava Rao, Parasuram Pattavardhana and other famous Pandits of the time.

By the time he came to Mysore, the Hindu dynasty had been restored and Krishna-

raja Wodayar was the ruling Prince. The king persuaded him to stay for some years

at Mysore and appointed him as a Dharmadhikari in his own palace. Thanks to this

royal patronage the Pandit performed the Jyotishtoma Yaga in a very grand style.

While at Mysore he heard about the greatness of the then Jagadguru at Sringeri

and went there to pay his respects to him. He did not recognise in the Acharya

before him the young Brahmachari who was his disciple at Benares but the latter

could not fail to recognise his Vedanta Guru, When the recognition was complete

on both sides, their joy at so unexpectedly meeting each other was necessarily

boundless. ii

return from Ramesvaram he stayed in his own village. Ripe in years and in
learning, he had intense devotion to God, especially as manifested in the Mahalinga
Murti at Madhyarjuna near his village and he has written a Mahalinga Sataka in

The reader will recognise from the above that the Mahisha Sataka is not an
idle Kavya written by a clever poet for the benefit of those who want to waste time
pleasantly but that it is replete with eternal truths, is from the pen of a really very
