“Written by DV Gundappa, ‘Mankuthimma Kagga’ presents various philosophies and deep spiritual principles in a simple language.
This work fosters humanist thought, respecting the views of different peoples and promoting the notion that the human race is one and united. Although it may seem superficially worthy of rationalism, it is in fact spreading a noble theological idea that the goal of all thought is ultimately to unite in that strange power which is managing the whole creation.
We should use this work again and again in our daily lives and lead our minds to the deeper truths of the world,” said Fr Onil D’Souza, parish priest of the Corpus Christi Church, Moodbidri.
He was speaking at the event book release programe held at St Aloysius College. Mankutimmana Kagga, Kannada work of eminent Kannada poet DVG is translated by Prof Stephen Quadros Permude. The book ‘Mankutimmchen Kavyen is published by Kuvempu Bhasha Bharati Pradhikara.
