JAYA RAO OF THE INDIAN ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICE DIRECTOR OF CENSUS OPERATIONS ANDHRA PRADESH PUBLISHED BY THE GOVERNMENT OF ANDHRA PRADESH 1986 POTHANA - THE GREAT DEVOUT POET The motif presented on the cover page represents Bammera Pothana, also called Pothanamatya, a devout poet belonging to the 15th century A. D. said to have hailed from the village Bammera near Warangal. The spiritual history of India is replete with devotional poetry and it was termed as BHAKTI movement, the 'CULT OF DEVOTION'. The SRIMADANDHRA MAHA­ BHAGA VATHAM rendered in Telugu by Pothana gave necessary fillip to this movement And nay! he could be treated as a progenitor of this movement. Pothana started this movement even before Chaitanya started the same movement in Bengal and Vallabh8chC/rya in Gujarat. In the Telugu country, this movement wastaken to great heights by Saints and lyricists like Annamacharya, Kshetrayya and Ramadas of Bhadrachalam fa"!e. Besides Bhagavatham,Pothana wrote VEERABHADRA VIJAYAM in praise of Lord Siva, which could be considered almost a Saivaite AGAMA SASTRA, BHOGINI DANDAKAM and NARA YANA SATAKAM, a devotional composition in praise of Lord Narayana or Vishnu. Pothana was a great poet of aesthetic eminence and his style was so simple and attractive to the common people as well as pedants. It is charming and sweet, and it won the hearts of the Telugu speaking people in a great sweep. He was one among the three or four top ranking Telugu poets of those days and even today.
