Significance of Vachanas

Vachana literature has a very special place in Kannada literary heritage. Unique literature consisting of verse prose, verse. The scriptures contain all the things needed for a pure life like religion, ethics, philosophy, spirituality, society, science, psychology, politics. What is not in the verses may seem more meaningful than what is there. It is no exaggeration that more ideas are contained here than the principles in the Vedas, Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita and other religious texts.The words of the 12th century sharanare about the greatness of vachanas are a mirror of reality.
