OothukaduVenkatasubbaIyer
S. Sankaranarayanan, a frequent contributor to Sruti, has written a book that analyses the sahitya of Oothukadu Venkatasubba Iyer’s Kamakshi navavaranam. We thank the writer for permitting us to republish selected passages from his book exclusively for Sruti subscribers.
The writer offers a glimpse of Venkatasubba Iyer and his
timeless melodies dedicated to the worship of Goddess
Kamakshi. We present the navavaranam series in four parts. The
first part, published below, introduces the Sree Chakra and the
invocation kritis.
