Swami Samantabhadra.
Where rays of light are shining, those people who are arrogant by obtaining a little knowledge - they start writing poetry and in this way they have shown the very smallness of their poetry in comparison to Samantabhadra - they are like fireflies or glowworms, they only achieve laughter.
Samantabhadraadikaveendrabhasvatam sphuranthi yatraamalamootkirashmayaha | vrajanti khadhyotavadeva hasyata,
na tatra kim jnanalavoudhata janaha || 14 || (3) In Alankarachintamani, Ajit Senaacharya, while saluting Samantabhadra, has written him as 'Kavikunjara', 'Munivandya' and 'Janananda' (one who brings joy to people) and along with this, he has also expressed that I salute him for his 'Vachanshri' - to enhance the beauty of words or to generate power in them.

Munivandya janananda namami vachanshriyay || 3 || . (4) In Varaangacharitra, Paravadi-Danti-Panchanana Shree Vardhamana Sari, while expressing Samantabhadra as 'Mahakavishvara' and 'Sutarkashastraamritasarasagar', informs that Samantabhadra had become famous by defeating the knowledge of his opponents (kuvadis). Along with this, he feels that the Mahakavishvara should be pleased with me, a seeker of poetry - meaning, his knowledge should shine in my heart and make my desires successful.
