akka

food,clothing,shelter are  essentials--usual definition

for akkamahadevi chenna mallikarjuna was the all–in–one essential comfort, luxury

she was bare,
god covered her with hair
she sang:
For hunger, there is the village rice in the begging bowl,
For thirst, there are tanks and streams and wells
For sleep temple ruins do well
For the company of the soul I have you, Chenna Mallikarjuna
