i) Srimad AkshobyathirtharaP.D( (Malakheda)

 

5th pontiff of the Uttaradhi mutt. (1350-1365)

 

During the Chaalukya period in Jamakhandi taluk there was a jeweler called

Keshava Bhatta- he got a son in 1282 named as Govindha Bhatta.(Page103-‘Guru

Namana’- Editor SuLaadhi Kuppe Rao, Sri Varadhendra Sahithya Mandali,

Lingasugur) The boy, when he was about 30 years old was impressed with the

teachings of Sriman Madhwar. He later became his disciple and took ashram as

Sri AksHoBhya Thirtha in 1312 -

 

He won in the debate against VidyaraNya of Vijayanagar. An able saint in the

Nivarana of “Bramhahatya Dosha” His works “Vedasara” is famous.

 

One loving glance, a gesture, a touch, a smile was enough to dissolve the

ego and bring a lasting transformation in the life the warrior.

 

He entered Brindavanam on 4-12-1365 at Malakheda on the banks of the river

the Kaagini, after handing over to his disciple Sri Jayatheertharu.

 

(Following text: Courtesy from: Dr Gururajan M. President, Sri Madhwacharya

Seva Sangha, Chennai-78)

The junior most direct disciple of the Acharya. One should understand that

only Rudra,Garuda or the Sesha amsa individuals can alone become the direct

disciples of the Acharya. Needless to say that he is the amsha of Rudra.

His winning over Vidyaranya at Mulubagal in the presence of Sri Vedanta

Desika was an historical event. He inducted Sri Sri Jayatheertha into

monastic order. He founded two lineages whch exist at Kudali Aksobhya

Mutt. He gifted Sri Vaikuntharama idol to

this Mutt. The other Mutt is the Bagalur Mutt. The Swamiji gifted Sri

Trinethra Narasimha idol. He entered the Brindhavana at Malkhed on the

banks of the river Kagini.

How can he be 5th pontiff, when Uttaradhi mutt was non-existant during that

time?
