SRI #MADHWAVIJAYAHA - NAVAMAHA SARGAHA SHLOKAs 19 TO 21 (55)
ಶ್ರೀ #ಮಧ್ವವಿಜಯ ನವಮ ಸರ್ಗ 19, 20, 21ನೇ ಶ್ಲೋಕಗಳ ಅರ್ಥವಿವರಣೆ (55)
Shobhana Bhatta appeased with Madhwa Bhashya/ಮಧ್ವಭಾಷ್ಯದಿಂದ ಶೋಭನ ಭಟ್ಟರಿಗಾದ ಮಹದಾನಂದ

SUMMARY: Like a Swan that sucks the nectar of Lotus develops aversion to the nectar of other flowers, Shobhana Bhatta, after listening to the Bhashya of Madhwa, developed dislike to other Bhashyas.
It must be acknowledged that Sri Shobhana Bhatta had a thorough and comprehensive knowledge of the Bhashyas that were already in existence. However, he was not ‘thoroughly’ or ‘comprehensively’ or conclusively satisfied with those Bhashyas as he was of the view that several questions remained mysterious, confusing and incomplete. Once he heard the Bhashya of Sri Madhwaru, Sri Shobhana Bhatta expressed complete satisfaction, according to this stanza.
Shobhana Bhatta propagates Madhwa philosophy/ಶೋಭನಭಟ್ಟರಿಂದ ಮಧ್ವಮತದ ಪ್ರಸಾರ

तत्र तत्र स सभासु भासुरॊ नन्दितीर्थसमयॊक्तयुक्तिभिः।
वादिनॊ विशकलय्य तान् समाक्र्म्य वाचमुचितामुदाहरत्॥२०॥
SUMMARY: In the spiritual conferences and debates that were happening in different places, Sri Shobhana Bhatta began attacking the antagonists with appropriate spiritual thoughts and views of Sri Madhwaru and delivered most proper explanations.
‘Bhasura’ means bright or shining.
Endowed with special grace of Sri Madhwaru, Sri Shobhana Bhatta imbibed deep knowledge of the philosophy of Sri Madhwaru and without wasting much time, began spreading the Madhwa Philosophy.
Later, Sri Shobhana Bhatta embraced sainthood under the tutelage of Acharya Madhwaru to be renamed as Sri Padmanabha Tirtharu. After Sri Madhwas disappearance, Sri Padmanabha Tirtharu adored the throne of Madhwa philosophy.
Thus, Sri Shobhana Bhatta was not only the first ‘audience’ of Madhwa philosophy but also the first proponent of Sri Madhwa philosophy. Adoring the throne of spiritual knowledge left vacant by the dissappearence of Sri Madhwaru is in no small measure an honor as well as an award for his vast knowledge.
Madhwa philosophy is like the Balamuri Conch/ಮಧ್ವಶಾಸ್ತ್ರವು ಬಲಮುರಿ ಶಂಖದ ತೆರನಂತೆ

SUMMARY: What a paradox and surprise! A limestone maker, who precipitates and converts several conchs into limestone, throws away in disgust and disappointment the Balamuri Conch after being unable to powder it despite struggling to do so for long!
Balamuri Conch is considered very special with a right curve or curvature.
Limestone makers convert conchs and sea shells into limestone by pounding them into dust. The conchs with right curvature are very hard and cannot be powdered easily. However, if the limestone maker, who is generally unaware of special quality of conchs with right curvature, tries to powder them, his efforts will be vain
Conch with right curvature is considered sacred as it is believed to represent Lord Vishnu. Conch with left curvature are said to represent Goddess Lakshmi.
