About this app

Kannada Vachanagalu is a collection of vachanas written by great vachana writers such as Vishwa Guru Basavanna, Allama Prabhu, Shiva Sharane Akka Mahadevi, Ambigara Chowdaiah, and other Sharanas. The vachanas are in the Kannada language.

Vachanas are a precious gift handed down to us by our ancestors — and to the generations still to come. It is our responsibility to let our children benefit from these beautiful words gifted by our elders.

The application has an easy user interface, a good collection of Kannada vachanas, and lets you read and share them with your friends. Each verse is paired with its meaning, and an English translation is shown alongside the Kannada, so the thought behind the words is always clear.
