He was an incredible scholar and was also expert in pourohitya and Ayurveda. His sishyas include Viswamanya Theertha (Pejawar mutt), Raghumanya Theertha (Palimar mutt), Vidyasamudra Theertha (Kaniyoor mutt), and Sugnanendra Theertha (Puttige mutt) which shows his knowledge. He gave sanyasa Ashrama to Vidyamanya Theertha of Bhandarkere mutt who later became head of Palimar mutt also. He was instrumental in establishing Sanskrit college in Udupi. He developed the mutt to become financially strong. He submitted one chariot to lord Narasimha in Ghatikachala.
