Description:
Amuktamalyada is an important Indian poetic classic associated with Sri Krishnadevaraya, the celebrated emperor of Vijayanagar and a scholar-poet of rare distinction. This English edition presents the poetic narration of the story of Goda Devi and her foster-father Vishnuchitta, two highly revered figures in Tamil Srivaishnava tradition. Goda Devi, also known as Amuktamalyada, is remembered as the devotee who first wore the garlands herself before offering them to the Lord.
The work beautifully combines devotion, poetry, philosophy, and cultural richness. Along with the main story of Goda and Vishnuchitta, it also includes associated episodes such as the story of a devoted pariah and discussions on spiritual liberation. The text reflects the literary elegance of Telugu poetic tradition while carrying a strong pan-Indian cultural and devotional appeal.
