just showing off my newly learned devanaagari typing skills1 😉 pls let me know if the spellings (in devanaagari script) are correct as per pronunciation
i wrote this as per balamuralikrishna’s song from the movie. . .to write the whole song i need to hear the words thank you

Thank you for posting this. But, I am deeply saddened by the fact that stotra being written in english should atleast contain minimum possible phoenetics such as those differentiating “a” from “aa” (or “A”)
With minimum phoenetics, it becomes: —
vandE vandyam sadAnandam vAsudEvam nirajanam |
……………
jAmbUnadAmbaradharam nitambam chintyamishituh |
svarnamaJnjirasamvitam arudham jagadambaya || 3||
……………
hraswa deerghagaLu sariyAgi baredare, kaliyuvavaru tappu maaduva Oduva bahaLaShTu kadimeyaaguttade….
……………
An update with the correct phonetics in English would be extremely helpful to one and all..
Again, thank you for posting this..

ಹುಟ್ಟಿನಿಂದ ಮಧ್ವ ಸಂಪ್ರದಾಯದವನಾಗಿ ಅಷ್ಟೇನೂ ವ್ಯತ್ಯಾಸ ತಿಳಿಯದೇ ಇದ್ದರೂ “ವಂದ್ಯೇ ವಂದ್ಯಂ…” ನನ್ನದೇ ಆಚಾರ್ಯರ ಕೃತಿ ಎಂಬುದನ್ನು ತಿಳಿದುಕೊಂಡಿದ್ದೆ. ’ಮಧ್ವಾಚಾರ್ಯ’ ಸಿನಿಮಾ ಬಿಡುಗಡೆಯ ಸಂದರ್ಭದಲ್ಲಿ ನನ್ನ ತೀರ್ಥರೂಪು ಸಮಾನರಾದ ಶ್ರೀ ಅಯ್ಯರ್ ರವರಲ್ಲಿ ವಾದ ಮಾಡುವ ಉದ್ಧಟತನ ಕೂಡಾ ತೋರಿದ್ದೆ. ’ದ್ವಾದಶ ಸ್ತೋತ್ರ;’ದ ಈ ’ವಂದ್ಯೇ..’ನ ಕೇವಲ ಆರು ಸಾಲುಗಳ ಬಳಕೆ ಮಾತ್ರ ಏಕೆ ಎಂಬುದು ನನ್ನ ಪ್ರಶ್ನೆ. ಕಾಲಡಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಕುಳಿತ ನನ್ನ ತಲೆಗೂದಲಲ್ಲಿ ಬೆರಳಾಡಿಸುತ್ತಾ ಅ ನನ್ನ ತಂದೆ ಹೇಳಿದ್ದು “ಮಗೂ, ನಿನ್ನ ಮನಸ್ಸಿಗೆ ಈ ಪೂರಾ ಸ್ತೋತ್ರವನ್ನು ಕೇಳಲೇಬೇಕು ಎನಿಸಬೇಕು ಎಂದು ನನ್ನ ಉದ್ದೇಶ. ನಿನಗೆ ಹಾಗೆನಿಸಿದ್ದೇ ಆದರೆ ನನ್ನ ಪ್ರಯತ್ನ ಸಾರ್ಥಕ. ನೀನು ನಾಳೆ ನಾಡಿದ್ದರಲ್ಲಿ ಬರುವ ವೇಳೆಗೆ…..” ಅಷ್ಟಕ್ಕೇ ನಿಲ್ಲಿಸಿದ್ದರು. ನಾನು ಪೂರ್ತಿ ಸ್ತೋತ್ರವನ್ನು ನನ್ನ ತಂದೆಯ ಮುಂದೆ ಹಾಡಿ ತೋರಿಸಿದೆ. A jeeva adeshtu AAnamda pattitO. ಸುಮ್ಮನೇ ನನ್ನನ್ನು ತಬ್ಬಿ ಹಣೆಗೆ ಮುತ್ತಿಟ್ಟಿತು ನನ್ನ ’ಅಪ್ಪಾಜೀ.’
