<strong>Sri</strong>padaraja Mutt<br />

Sometime after he became the Pontiff of the Mutt, he set out on travel. He came to<br />

Mulubagilu and made up his mind to stay there knowing well its Historical, Educational and<br />

Dharmic background. At that time Mulubagilu was under the control of Vijayanagar kings.<br />

<strong>Sri</strong>padarajaru comes in the divine parampara of Padmanabhatheertha Mutt. <strong>Sri</strong> Padamanabha<br />

theertharu was the direct disciple of Shri Madhwacharya. He was the first to write notes<br />

(Sanyayarathnavali & sattarkadeepavali) on Madhwacharya's great works. He paved the way<br />

for dwaitha sidhanta to scale new heights. Narayana pandithacharya has lot of praise for <strong>Sri</strong><br />

Padmanabha theertharu as a lion critic . <strong>Sri</strong> Jayatheertharu has described him as a pure person<br />

who lived in the ocean of chaste knowledge.<br />

<strong>Sri</strong> Padmanabha muni saw to it that his monastic order remained wedded to propagation of<br />

dharma. This mutt was called as Padmanabhatheertha mutt before <strong>Sri</strong>padarajaru, and after<br />

him, because of the alluring personality of <strong>Sri</strong>padarajaru it became famous as <strong>Sri</strong>padarja mutt.<br />
