Sri Sridhara Tirtharu

Sri Sridhara Tirtharu became the profound founding pontiff of the Kundapura Vyasaraja Matha following the historic division of the original Vyasaraja Matha during the tenure of his guru, Shri Rama Teertha . Tasked with leading the disciples in the Karavali region, he settled in Hale Sode and dedicatedly managed the Lakshminarayana temple originally built in Hulekal by the great Shri Vyasaraja. He performed miracles through his intense devotion and famously offered daily worship to the Torana Ganesha, before entering Brindavana in Old Sode.
