He was always performing full austerities and like his predecessors he visited all places of pilgrimage on regular basis. During such yatras he visited Mannargudi, near Kumbakonam in Tamil Nadu. There he performed severe austerities and pleased Lord Krishna. He got 8 idols of Krishna and awakened the power of the Lord in them, kept one for himself and gave the rest to other 7 mathas. He conducted one Paryaya and then handed over the Samsthana to his direct disciple Shri Varijaksha Theertha and left again for Mannargudi. He stayed there and pleased the Lord of the place Shri Krishna with his steadfast devotion and attained his abode on 5th day of Magha Shuddha.
