About Basavanna...
 Basaveswara was a 12th century Spritual master in Karnataka. Popularly known as Basavanna, he propagated moral, ethical and spiritual values for a peaceful and purposeful life. Disillusioned by an indifferent and disparate society, Basavanna formed a new spiritual institution, "Anubhava Mantapa". . It was based on democratic principles to spread universal love and brotherhood. Anyone, irrespective of caste, could become a member of this institution as long as they were pious an of good character. We celebrate his accomplishments on his birthday please Join on this day.
