 Sri Satyavijaya Theertharu

 He had given ashrama to Sri Sathya priya teertha who was

touring north India for several years.
 At that time Sri Sathya Poorna teertha felt that his end is
nearing but they could not locate Sri Sathya Priya Theertha.

 Hence Sri Sathya Poorna Theertha came to Mannargudi in

TN and initiated Sri Balacharya into Sanyasa and renamed
and renamed him as Sri Sathya Vijaya Theertha with specific
instructions that he should hand over the Samasthana to Sri
Sathya Priya Theertha. After a point of time Sri Sathya
Poorna Theertha entered brindavan in Sangli. Even then Sri
Sathya Priya Theertha did not turn up. Sri Sathya Vijaya
Theertharucontinued his tours during the course of which he
came to Arni in TN.

 Arni at that time was being ruled by a Madhwa Maratta

Brahmin by name Srinivasa Rao Saheb . The jagir was
received as a benefit for services rendered by ancestor Sri
Vedoji Bhaskar Pant to Shavaji( Chartapathi Shivaji
Maharaj’s father).
 One day after pooja and theertha prasada they both started
walking and when thay came to a spot they saw a five headed (
some say three headed) snake. When the Jagirdhar asked Sri
Swami the significane, Srigalu explained that very soon he will
have to shift his palace as there is a danger of an impending
war between the Arcot Nawab and Hyderali.

 After some time Sri Sathya Vijaya theertha fet that his end was
nearing and instructed the jagirdhar that the momemt he is
dead, he is to be carried and when they reach a place where
the pall bearers can no more bear the weight , they have to
bury him in that spot. Further he made the inventory of all the
things with him and gave a copy to the Jagirdhar and one
more to Sri Satya Priya Theertha. Further the pooja box

should be buried after his death and has to be unearthed only

after Sri Sathya Theertha comes back.
 Further he instructed that Sri Sathya Priya Theertha has to
exchange his danda.

 Finally one day Sri SathyaVijaya Theertha passed away and

as instructed they started carrying him . They came to a spot
where they were unable to bear the weight. The Jagirdhar
Srinivasa Rao Saheb was astonished because it was the very
spot where they sighted the snake. He built the brindavana of
Sri Sathya Vijaya Theertha and also shifted the palace there.
He renamed the place as Sri Sathya Vijaya Nagaram in the
memory of Sri Swami. Even today you can see the Jagir palace
there.

 Sri Sathya Priya theertha came to Sathyavijaya Nagaram and

was breifed by the Jagirdhar about the happenings. The Pooja
box was taken out and given to Sri Sathya priyaru. All
went on well until the Jagirdhar informed the swamiji that he
has to exchange his danda. Now this created a peculiar
problem. Sri Sathya Vijayaru was not his ashrama guru and
it is a normal practice to receive the danda from the ashrama
guru. Confused he started walking when he reached the
Hanuman temple. The hanuman devaru here was consecrated
by Sri Vyasarajaru ( it is another place where they are finding
it very difficult to run the temple). The moment he reached the
temple he was swarmed by monkeys. Just then he had the
Vishwaroopa dashana of Sri Vayudevaru. Vayudevaru told
him that Sri Sathya Vijaya Theertha was a great soul who
followed his guru’s instructed to the core without even
appointing a successor and that he should exchange his danda
and continue with is sanchara. Sri Sathya Priya did as told by
Sri Vayu devaru and continued his sanchara and he entered
brindavana in Manamadurai.
