Sri Narayana Tirtharu

Sri Narayana Tirtharu was the visionary founding pontiff of the Partagali Jeevottama Matha. Originally initiated into Sanyasa in the majestic Himalayas by Sri Ramachandra Teertha of Palimaru Matha, he successfully established the very first Gauda Saraswat Matha on the sacred banks of the Panchaganga in Kashi. He united the dispersed Saraswat community and guided the lineage until his Brindavana pravesha in Bhatkal.
