Shri lakshmInArAyaNa tIrtharu was a rare person who had Vishesha anugraha of shri hari vayu and gurugalu. He excelled in all shastras from very young age by accumulation of Poorva janma maha punya.
His Guru Sri Lakshmipathi tIrtharu, a maha jnaani himself, knew that Lakshmi Narayana Tirtharu to be the rightful successor to Vedanta samrajya very early. Sri Lakshmi Narayana Tirtharu adorned Vedanta samrajya about 3 decades and travelled extensively all over Bharatha Bhoomi.
When his holiness got divine calling of Lord Krishna to complete his duties in visible form, he prayed to his Guru Sri Lakshmipathi tirtharu as to what the lord meant. His Guru came in his dream and directed him to leave for badarikashrama for higher studies under Srimadhwacharyaru himself. By Sri Vyasaraja Gurusarvabhowmara blessings, he found the right successor who would complete the great grantha 'Tatparya Chandrika' by Sri Vyasaraja Gurusarvabhowmaru. He named his successor Raghunatha Tirtharu. Later the same Raghunatha Tirtharu completed Chandrika grantha and became popular as Sheshachandrikacharyaru.
Sri Lakshmi Narayana Tirtharu then left to Badarikashrama with his successor and disciples.Chikka badari or Badarinath which we see now is what mere mortals can see. Further there are places like sathopanth from where Pandavas travelled to heaven. Further from there Sri Lakshmi Narayana Tirtharu blessed Sri Sheshachandrikacharyaru and other disciples and disappeared to Dodda Badari (Badarikashrama) which isn't visible to mortals. Even today Sri Lakshmi Narayana Tirtharu is believed to be present and learning under srimadhwacharyaru at Dodda badari.
Sri Vyasaraja Matha (Sosale) is blessed to have 3 Mahaan gurus of its Guru Parampara on bhoo mandala even today, namely
1.Sriman Madhwacharyaru (disappeared from Udupi and is in Badarikashrama)
2.Sri Purushottama tirtharu (did Guha pravesha at abbUru and is in penance), and
3. Sri Lakshmi Narayana Tirtharu (disappeared to Badarikashrama & learning)
