Life

According to hegiographies, Yadupati was born in Kannada-speaking Deshastha Madhva Brahmin family in 1580 in a village called Yekkundi which is located in Saundatti taluk of Belgaum district. His father name is Yadappayya.[1] His cousin Bidarahalli Srinivasa Tirtha, who is also his disciple was also a Tikakara who composed many works.[2][3]

Works

There have been nine works accredited to Yadupati, most of which are glosses, polemical tracts and commentaries. His gloss on Tattva Samkhyana of Madhva runs to 300 granthas. He also made a commentary on Tattvoddyota of Madhva. His Nyayasudha Tippani, a commentary on Nyayasudha of Jayatirtha is the most important of his works.[1] This commentary is distinctly anterior to that of Raghavendra Tirtha and also perhaps to that of Vidyadhisha Tirtha. He tried to overthrow the objection raised by a critic Appayya Dikshita alleging misrepresentations of the Mīmāṃsāka view in Anuvyakhyana of Madhva. Yadupati made two commentaries on the Bhagavata, a work on Bhagvata Tatparya Nirnaya of Madhva and a work on Bhagavata Purana. His also made a commentary of Yamakabharata. There are three minor works ascribed to him one is a commentary on Sadachara Smruti of Madhva and other are praise-poems Vishnu Stotra, Karavalambana Stotra, Daridra Hara Stotra, and Vedavyasa-gadya.[4]

gollark: Although you'd then need central coordination, you would probably want central coordination anyway.
gollark: I would have separate drones running each part of the route.
gollark: That doesn't tell you how much they use *per second* or anything *when flying*.
gollark: Knowing the necessary power is the problem; I don't know how much drones use to operate.
