Sri Vaikuntha Dasaru 1480--1550 AD

Sri Vadirajaru reformed a rich person who was a miser who lived in Belur, Hassan. This person was given a Hayagriva Salagrama and told that by performing pooja to the Salagrama his property would increase, out of greed this miser started to do pooja to it and in due course started to get devoted towards Lord Hayagriva and lost interest in the materialistic world. At this juncture Sri Vadirajaru blessed him and named him “Sri Vaikunta Dasa.” Later on Sri Vaikunta Dasaru started composing Kirtanas in Kannada on Sri Hari with Ankitha nama of Vaikunta. Among his compositions a song called Kapatamata and many Suladis.
