Sri Vidyabhooshana Theertharu ( 1988–1993; Shravana Krishna Panchami) Bidarahalli,Bangalore.Bidarahalli is approximately 4 KMs from KR Puram. One has to take left at AavalaHalli. (KR Puram –Bidarahalli cross OR aavala Halli –Hosakote) or 45 kms from Bangalore near Devanahalli.
It was vayu who glowed in his third incarnation as Acharya Madhva establishing the kingdom of dvaita Vedanta. Shri Madhvacharya popularised the twenty second philosophy which was tatvavada. He initiated many of his disciples into ascetic order and engaged them in constant dispersal of spiritual knowledge. Amongst his innumerable disciples the prominentones were Shri Padmanabha Tirtha and the great seers of the eight mathas of Udupi. The first pontiff of Shri Shiroor mutta which is one of the eight muttas in Udupi was Shri Vamana Tirtha, the direct disciple of shri Madhvacharya. Shri LakshmiManohara Tirtha (1781 - 1819) belonging to the same lineage of Shri Vamana Tirtha initiated Shri Madhava Tirtha into ascetic order. And the mutta that grew from Shri Madhava Tirtha is the “Shri Kanva Matha”.
Bidarahalli Srinivasachar got the title “Thirtha”:
Once Rayaru, on his way went to Bidarahalli and met Srinivasacharyaru in his house and stayed there for a few days accepting his bhikshe. There, Rayaru had the opportunity of reading the works of Bidarahalli Srinivasacharyaru and was with full of admiration for Srinivasacharya, who even though was a gruhasta, had dedicated himself to the spread of knowledge. Rayaru blessed him with the title “THIRTHA” and renamed him as “Bidarahalli Srinivasa Thirtha” instead of “Bidarahalli Srinivasachar”. Thus he got the “thirtha” title even though he was not a sanyasi.
His works :- Commentary on
1. Srimanyaayasudha
2. Tatvaprakashika
3. Dashaprakaranateeka
4. Pramanapaddati
5. Bhagavatha
6. Rugbhashya

Please do not confuse this saint by another Madhwa saint of the same name. In 1766, the then Peetadhipathi of Shirror Math (this was one of the eight or asta maths set up by Madhwacharya to look after the Krishna temple in Udupi), Lakshmi Manohara Theertha, set up the Kanva Matha at Hunasehole in Surapur taluk of Gulbarga district under Venkateshacharya who later came to be called Madhava Theertha.
This matha was set up to exclusively cater to the needs of those who followed Shukla Yajur Veda. The brindavana of Madhava Theertha (Kanva Matha) is at Buddhini, which is off the Maski-Lingsugur state highway (No 19) road in Raichur district. The brindavana was built in 1810.
