There is hardly any Madhva who does not know 'Dvadasastotra'.
It was
composed by Srimadacharya when he brought the "krishna
vigraha' which he got from some boat which he saved
from drowning by hismiraculous powers. These metrical stotras are a
feast to the ears and mind when sung with devotion. The stotras are
mainly in praise of the Lord Sri Krishna ,and His manifestations as the
ten avatars. Apart from it the stotras incorporate several points of
philosophic import such as the Lord's powers of creation, and sustanance
of the world. The import of the Bhagavadgita ,doing one's duty as
service to God without any desire for fruit is stated in the song 'kurubhuxva
cha karma nijam iyatam'.The last song with the lines
'Ananda Tirtha parananda varada' indicates the
intense devotion of Srimadananda
tirthabhagavatpadacharya for his beloved Lord who is
'Anandamaya' "
"PreenayamO VAsudEvam devatAkhanada mandanam
PreenayamOVasudEvam'.
