A BRIEF LIFE HISTORY OF TYAGARAJA
Tyagaraja
was born as Kakarla Tyagabrahmam in Tiruvarur town, to Kakarla Ramabrahmam and
Sitamma on 04th May 1767 CE. During his childhood, he had training
in singing from his grandfather Veena Kalahastayya, and his mother. Tyagaraja
learned music from Guru Ramakrishnananda, an eminent scholar during that time.
After learning to sing devotional songs, started composing the songs in his
teenage years. He spent most of his time worshipping Rama's idol by composing
Kirthis and singing. The Idol of Rama was given to him by his mother.
A disciple of Vankatramana Bhagavathar with Tyagaraja
He left home and renounced this materialistic
life. He undertook many pilgrimages and his disciples also followed him. It is
believed that he had composed nearly 24000 songs of which only 700 are
survived, which are written by his disciples in palm leaves. Most
of his songs are composed in Telugu on Rama and rarely on Shiva also ( Kovur
near Chennai Shiva temple has his Pancharathna Kithanas ).
As
far as his personal life is concerned, Tyagaraja married Parvatamma at the age
of 18, in 1784 CE, but she died in 1789 CE. Later, in 1791, he married her
sister, Kamalamba. They were blessed
with a daughter called Sitalakshmi, who got married in 1810 to Kuppusamy Shastri
of Ammal Agraharam. Tyagaraja left this materialistic world and attained siddhi
on 06th January 1847 CE. The details of the final days of his life
are not known.
His
Samadhi was identified 78 years after his death and the present Samadhi Temple,
Praharam and Madapalli was constructed and consecrated on 07th
January 1925, by his disciple Vidhya Sundari Bengaluru Nagarathnammal, daughter
of Mysore Buttalakshmi Ammal. The total work was completed in 1938.
TYAGARAJA ARADHANA
5
days of Thiyagarajar Aradhana will be conducted every year during January –
February on Pushya Pagula Panchami day when Saint Thiyagaraja Swamigal attained
Siddhi. During that 5 day Aradhana, musicians from all over the world assemble
in the temporarily erected shayamana to sing Thiyagaraja kirthanas. It is a dream
for budding artists/musicians for the chance to sing at this festival.
