Sri Uttaradi Matha, the Jagadguru SriMan Madhwacharya Moola Maha Samsthana, is one of the most revered institutions of the Madhwa Sampradaya. With numerous branches spread across Bharata Khanda, it serves as a dynamic center for spiritual practice, devotion, traditional learning, and community welfare.
Atkur is a vibrant and spiritually rich village in Karnataka, located near the banks of the Krishna River, nestled in the Nallamala forest region. This sacred branch of Sri Uttaradi Matha is home to the Moola Brindavanas of four great saints:
Sri Satyakama Teertharu
Sri Satyeshta Teertharu
Sri Satyadheera Teertharu
Sri Satyaprajna Teertharu
These saints have deeply contributed to the legacy and lineage of Sri Uttaradi Matha, and their presence sanctifies the Atkur branch.
