Shri Vasudhendra Teertharu

Dhyana Sloka

वसुधातलविख्यातं वैराग्यादिगुणार्णवं।

वेदवेदांगचतुरं वसुधेंद्रगुरुं भजे।

Shri Vadindra Tirtharu's Purvashrama elder brother, Venugopalacharya, had three sons. All of them adorned the Pitha as follows:

• First son Purushotamacharya: Shri Vasudendra Tirtharu, #23
• Second son Balaramacharya: Shri Varadendra Tirtharu, #24
• Third son Lakshminarayanaacharya: Shri Bhuvanendra Tirtharu, #26

Purushotamacharya took Sanyasa in 1746 and continued to serve his Gurugalu. He became the Pithadhipati after his Gurugalu attained Brindavana in 1750.

During Shri Vasudendra Tirtharu's time, Mantralaya was officially handed over to the Mata. Also, there were other villages and properties gifted to the Mata during his time by various rulers.

He wrote a commentary on the "Gurugunasthavana" work of his Gurugalu, Shri Vadindra Tirtharu. His other work is "Tantra Sara".

Shri Jagannatha Dasaru had composed a song on this saint - "Shri Vasudendra Raya Gana Marutha".
