Jnaneshwar : Amar Chitra Katha Vol. 723 (P)

Jnaneshwar (meaning Lord of Knowledge or Jnana) was one of the greatest saints of Maharashtra and the founder of the Bhakti Movement. All the subsequent poet-saints of Maharashtra looked up to him for inspiration. Jnaneshwar was the one who first explained the Gita in Marathi and thus brought it to the common man who had no knowledge of Sanskrit.
