It is said that when he was in his infancy a cobra sneaked into his cradle, he was found playing with it which was witnessed by many. Being a highly revered Swamiji, the Mutt was granted the Villages of Shiroor, Santyaaru and Shivapura in the Udupi District, by Mudradi Anantayya who was then the Dewan of Nagara. He built Mantapa for their mutt in Udupi and now this Mantapa is used for keeping silver chariot of Krishna. He then established the now famous Sri Shiroor Moola Mutt at Shiroor.
After handing over Peeta to Sri Lakshmimanohara Theertha he entered Vrundavana at Udupi.
