I came across this Asktakam sung well by Vid. Gayatri Venkat raghavan. This is becoming popular amidst the Cauvery Calling movement started and scaled up by Sadhguru.

Would someone kindly educate me on:
Who composed the sahitya?
When was this first presented?

Thank you. I understand that the audio itself is at least a couple of years old.
