SUMMARY: Lord Shesha, along with Sanaka and other Munis, listened to the discourse of Sri Purnaprajna (BrahmasutraBhAShya), standing in the sky. They showed up a part of their forms to the public on Earth for a very little while and disappeared instantly and went to their abodes.

Here is the evidence to the fact that even deities liked the discourses of Sri Madhwaru and were yearning to hear his discourses.

There is a detailed description of this fact in Chalari Achar’s Commentary.

Once, Sri Madhwaru was presenting a discourse during night that was berefr of moonlight. Then, there was a sudden light in the sky. People started wondering about the reason for such light to have suddenly covered the sky. Sri Madhwaru explained to the people that the light was not moonlight but Lord Shesha had come there to hear his discourse and the light was emanating from Lord Shesha. Sri Madhwaru is also said to have shown to the people Lord Shesha, who was about to return to his place. This has been mentioned in Bhavaprakashike:

SUMMARY: Sri Sanaka and other Munis, who were the embodiment of modesty, saluted the most radiant, thousand-hooded Lord SheSha, who was in their house then, saluted him and  questioned him in this way…

Lord SheSha has one thousand hoods and two thousand legs and what better compliment can be given to Madhwashastra after Lord SheSha alone praised it!

Sri Sanakadi Munis sought to know from Lord Shesha about the benefits of Madhwa Bhashya.
