THYAGARAJA |
|
| Thyagaraja felt
disappointed and he sang a song praying that the curtain ofignorance be removed. At once the physical curtain before the Lord dropped down and Thyagaraja could have his fill of darshan!. On his way back through a forest; Sri Rama and Lakshmana protected him from a band of dacoits unseen by him. Thyagaraia visited the shrine of Sri Ranganatha at Srirangam and sang exquisite songs on the deity. Later on he met another saint by name Bodhendra. Thyagaraja was now 88 years old. He sang before his favourite deity of Sri Rama- requesting him to give him moksha. |
