The Vachana movement was a religious and social reform movement in Karnataka, India, that flourished in the 12th and 13th centuries. The movement was led by Basavanna, a poet, philosopher, and social reformer. Basavanna and his followers, known as Vachanakaras, wrote in a simple, direct style known as Vachana. Vachanas are short poems that address a wide range of topics, including religion, philosophy, social justice, and personal experiences.
The Vachana movement was progressive in its values. It challenged the caste system, gender inequality, and other forms of social injustice. It also promoted the ideals of religious tolerance and universal brotherhood.
Some examples of the progressive values addressed by the Vachana movement:
 Equality: The Vachanakaras rejected the caste system and advocated for the equality of all people, regardless of their caste, birth, or social status.
 Gender equality: The Vachanakaras supported the rights of women and promoted gender equality. They believed that women and men were equal in the eyes of God.
 Religious tolerance: The Vachanakaras were tolerant of different religions and beliefs. They believed that all religions lead to the same God.
 Universal brotherhood: The Vachanakaras believed in the universal brotherhood of all people. They taught that everyone is connected to each other and that we should treat each other with respect and compassion.
The Vachana movement had a profound impact on Kannada literature and society. It helped to promote progressive values and social justice. The Vachanas are still read and studied today, and they continue to inspire people all over the world.
