A complete collection of vachanas of Santhikki Lakkamma
Sivasharan in Kannada Nadu in the twelfth century. Parthikki Lakkamma is a self-confident girl from Amareshwar village in Lingasaguru taluk of Raichur district. The couple, Satikki Lakkamma and Satikki Marayya, made it their business to prepare food from the rice they brought and to offer dasoha to the devotees who came to their house every day. Crops such as paddy/millet are harvested, rice is dried, and the milk left in the fields is called "Akkalu" after being removed from the load while packing. Such honeys are selected and brought by the poor to satisfy their hunger. The work of picking the fallen teats like this is called "raking". Picking up scattered rice is a skill. Ishtadaiva-Amareshwar. Marayya Priya Amareswaralinga is the symbol of his verses. 25 vachanas written in Ankita have now been found. All highlight the information of Kayaka and Dasoha. Lakkamma was hired by Basavanna by giving food to one lakh ninety-six thousand jangamaris from Hidakki. Everyone who surrenders is dumbfounded by her miracle and wonders that everything is an illusion in front of Bhakti. Once Shiva himself came in a movable form, created the impossible cold and shivered, asked these two devotees of Shiva to wear clothes and showed appreciation for their devotion. A selection of Lakkamma's vachanas shows the two-fold desire of self-salvation and worldliness, self-reliance, steadfastness, awareness of knowledge, equanimity, the audacity to question the goodness of others, the attitude that excess is not good, her unwavering self-confidence, and the unveiling of her immaculate personality.
