festive autumn nights

Dewi as Annapoorna bestows anna bhiksha and gnana bhiksha upon us.
Her body is gnana or mere knowing.

She is the origin of all alphabets, sounds and transcendental mantras, says Adi Sancara - Aadi Kshaantha samastha warnananakari -

And Thayumanawar addresses the Divine as 'intelligence' - Ariwaana Deiwamey - 

And from this universality people from north and south, travelled to southern sea town of Rameswaram and northern Waranasi.
Now, in the name of a secular world view, we have buried religion.

Amid intellectuals, Samskrit language was a common thread.
Today, Samskrit has been somewhat  'finished'.
And hindi speaking people now seek to finish off  the English language, that has provided the much needed common ground.

- Shri Chandrashekarendra Saraswati, Kanchi
