Mahakavi Kamban

From the Bhakti List Archives

Naresh Ramarajan • October 25, 2002 


Hello all,

I've heard my grandparents and some elders quote Kamban's story as
reference to the saying that "who says what is as/more important than what they are
saying," and would explain that even though Kamban said the most beautiful
words about the Lord, since his character was in question even in the day,
his words were never given scriptural reverence. Of course, i have no idea
whether this allegation against Kamban's character is true or not, and
have no bias one way or the other. I just wanted to throw this out since i
have heard my grandfather and some other elders use this example.

Adiyen,
Naresh Ramarajan.
