In this episode, we will talk about Thayumanavar, Tamil: தாயுமானவர் (1705–1744).  He was also a scholar in Sanskrit and was a minister to the King in Trichinopoly in South India. His name hails from the name of the deity of the Rockfort Temple in Tiruchirapalli.  He wrote several Tamil hymns of which 1454 are available. His poems follow his own mystical experience, but they also outline the philosophy of South Indian Hinduism. Please listen and share it with all your friends.
