Submitted by Atma Chaitanya, in reverence of his Guru Swami Chinmayananda

"The versatile genius of Vyasa has never left anything that he has touched without raising to the sublimest heights of sheer perfection. With unimaginable capacities for incomparable poetry, unapproachable prose diction, chaste descriptions, artistic literary designs' original innovations both in thought and form, a brilliant philosopher, a consummate man of wisdom, a genius in worldly knowledge -now in the palace -now
in the battlefields - now in Badrinath now among thesilent snowy peaks - strode the colossus, Sri Vyasa an embodiment of what is best in Hindu tradition and in the Aryan culture. Such an all round genius has not yet been reported ever to have been born, lived or achieved in the history of globe".
