Mahatma Sri Kamakshi Dasa, born Somasundaram Iyer, at the age of 26,  had the divine vision of Sri Kamakshi Devi and she then ordained him to sing songs in her praise. He painted the sketch of the Goddess as seen in his vision and started worshipping her.

This painting done in mere water colour is in worship for the last 96 years and is still as fresh as ever. 

Sri Dasa expounded the true Vedanta philosophy of Satya Advaita. It furnishes a philosophy of living in consonance with our highest potentialities and seeks to reconcile the doctrine of “Everything is Brahman” with the latest scientific discoveries. It enforces the thesis that one-pointed devotion is consistent with every variety of worship. It also seeks to reconcile all faiths as ultimately tending to the same goal.

Mahatma Kamakshi Dasa has bestowed us with numerous divine compositions on various deities, and other renowned philosophical works. 

We trust our readers will be inspired to take a step forward towards the Divine.

In His own words “May the All-Pervading One, the One without a second lead us on from Evil to Good, from Darkness to Light and from Death to Immortality”.
