He was a very big scholar, he taught his contemporary Swami of the Vyasaraja Matha and got showered with 2000 gold coins. During his paryaya, the then King of Mysore, Krishnarja Wodeyar visited the temple, he was highly impressed with Swamiji’s scholarly talents and gifted him his horse as offering. Swamiji knew that his death would be by serpent bite, so when he was bitten by a serpent went into meditation and left his mortal body on the 12th day of Vaishaka Shuddha.
