Yogindu Deo |
Much is not known about Yogindu, the spiritual poet of Apbhransha. He has
been remembered by different names, e.g. Yogindu, Yogindra. The Sanskrit
translation Yogindu of Apbhransha Joindu and not Yogindra appears to be
correct.
There are different opinions about his time also. His time is regarded as
from the 6th to the 11th century.
The effect of Kundkund is apparent on his writings. Yogindu has taken much
from Kundkund. Samadhi Shatak of Pujaypad and Parmatma Prakash of Yogindu
have close similarity of ideas.
His works Parmatma Prakash and Yogsar are imperishable stores -of his
glory. In these works he has described the deep mysteries of the soul in
simple and natural language of the common folk.
