Akka Mahadevi was an important figure in the 12th c. CE Bhakta movement. For more about her, see this earlier post.

Breath for fragrance,
who needs flowers?

With peace, patience, forgiving and self-command,
who needs the Ultimate Posture?

The whole world become oneself
who needs solitude,

O lord white as jasmine.

Translation A. K. Ramanujan
