Vema Reddy also known as Yogi Vemana, was a Telugu philosopher and poet. Vemana was born in Gandikota, Kadapa district in Andhra Pradesh. His poems are known for their use of simple language and native idioms. They discuss the subjects of yoga, wisdom and morality.

There is no consensus among scholars about the period in which Vemana lived. C.P. Brown, known for his research on Vemana, estimates his year of birth to be 1652 based on some of his verses. Various sources say he was born in the fifteenth, sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.[1]

Vemana was from a royal upper community. Brown says this was the Hindu Reddy Community. Reddy community has a history of ruling the land between two major historical temples which are still buzzing and famous pilgrimage destinations, Land between Srisailam and Tirumala Tirupati. That’s almost 120 kilometers of distance between the two places. Vemana was a Vedic scholar and also a member of the royal court before he renounced himself and became a yogi, they join the Jangam section they give up their previous caste and family appellation and are usually called by the name of their sect alone. Vemana was a great yogi in Achala Siddhartha.
