[Advaita-l] Thyagaraja Swami, a great Vaishnava as per Veda Vyasa

[V Subrahmanian]

In the composition   karuNa jUDavamma   on Devi of Thiruvārur  Sri
Thyagaraja says in a charanam:

 purANa puruSaDugu rAmuniki yA purArikini
nIku rAjadhari maccarAna vErEnca rAdu

He shows unity between Rama, Shiva and Devi, by telling her that there is
no envy and rivalry among themselves.

The above was stated by Brahma Sri Balaji Bhagavatar in his discourse on
Thyagaraja Vaibhavam.

It would be interesting to note that the Padma Puranam, in the Bhagavata
12th Canto Mahātmyam says:

भेदं न कुरुते यस्तु दुर्गाविष्णुशिवादिषु ।

ब्रह्मत्वेनैव जानाति वैष्णवः स परो मतः ॥ ११

He is admitted to be a great Vaiṣṇava who does not differentiate between
Durgā, Viṣṇu, Śiva, etc. and looks upon all to be Brahman Itself.
