The Yadavabhyudaya (Sanskrit: यादवाभ्युदयम्, romanized: Yādavābhyudayam) is a Sanskrit mahakavya (epic poem)[1] by the Hindu philosopher Vedanta Desika.[2] Written in the fourteenth century CE,[3] the work consists of 24 cantos that describe the life of Krishna as well as the lineage of the Yadava race.[4]
The Yadavabhyudaya is regarded to be a significant work of medieval Sanskrit poetry.[5] It holds the rare distinction of being offered a flattering commentary by the philosopher Appayya Dikshita, who belonged to the Advaita school of thought; the poet Vedanta Desika himself was a proponent of the rival Vishishtadvaita philosophy.[6]
