D. V. Gundappa
Devanahalli Venkataramanaiah Gundappa (17 March 1887 – 7 October 1975), popularly known as DVG, was an Indian writer, poet and philosopher in Kannada-language. He is one of the stalwarts of modern Kannada literature. His most notable work is the '' Mankuthimmana Kagga'' ("Dull Thimma's Rigmarole", 1943), which is similar to the wisdom poems of the late medieval poet Sarvajna. George, pp. 1057, 1437 Legacy Published in 1943, Mankuthimmana Kagga is one of the best known of the major literary works in Kannada. The title of this work can be translated as "Dull Thimma's Rigmarole". Facing life's challenges with cheerfulness, understanding everything as a divine play, recognizing our own and others needs, honoring human aspirations and dreams, working for noble causes and above all, dissolving our ego in mature thinking are among the great thoughts that the Kagga offers. Countless similes, metaphors and multitude of choice expressions make the reading of the Kagga thoroughly delight ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Marula Muniyana Kagga
Marula Muniyana Kagga is practically the extension of Mankuthimmana Kagga. These are the stray poems of Devanahalli Venkataramanaiah Gundappa, referred to as DVG, which have been collected together and published after his death. We can find in these poems the expression of fine thoughts of a person who had immense interest in the affairs of divinity. Written by an amateur person each poem contains ripened wisdom of a great scholar. Though the poet claims that Marula Muniya is the brother of Mankuthimma, one could realize before long that Muniya is none other than Mankuthimma himself. It is no wonder if DVG himself must have felt the development of this kind of writing. Like the growing tail of Hanuman in Lanka, Questions and problems keep Surging forth for this talkative, a stammerer, Marula Muniya No Comic story is this Kagga, nor It is an emotional outpouring, Stuff it is for cogitation in mind, Enjoy each poem, one at a time, Marula Muniya There are 825 poems in this ...

A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility.
