Ashrama Guru : Sri Madhwacharya
Ashrama Shishya : Sri Kamalekshana Theertha
Aradhana : Chaitra Shudha Panchami
Vrundavana/place of demise : Bhagirathi
Sri Narasimha Theertha is the first pontiff of Adamaru mutt who was given Ashrama by Sri Madhwacharya himself. In Sumadhwa Vijaya, his name is mentioned as ‘Narasimha padadhara:’ He ruled the Peeta for many years and did pilgrimage tour. He is famous for his tapas Shakti. He gave Ashrama to Sri Kamalekshana Theertha and once again went to north India for pilgrimage tour.
Some believe that he is same as Narahari Theertha (Successor of Padmanabha Theertha who brought idols of moola Seeta Rama from gajapati kingdom), but there is a strong traditional & evidences which says they are different persons who were Sri Madhwacharya’s Shishya.
After handing over Peeta to Sri Kamalekshana Theertha, it is said that he entered Vrundavana at Bhagirathi but it needs to be confirmed after thorough research.
