Satyapriya Tirtha

Most of the information about Satyapriya Tirtha's life is derived from the hagiography, Guruvamsakathakalpataru authored by Bhimadaivajna of Bijapur. Satyapriya was born with a Sesha- amsa. Satyapriya Tirtha was born as Garlapad Ramacharya in 1701 in Raichur. Satyapriya Tirtha was initially given ashrama by Satyapurna Tirtha. When Sri Satyapurna Tirtha fell ill, and Sri Satyapriya Tirtha was on tour to propogation of Dvaita Philosophy, he ordained sanyasa to Satya Vijaya Tirtha. After 11 years reign as peetadhipathi of the Pontificate he made over the Samsthana to Satyapriya Tirtha. From that time onwards Satyapriya Tirtha began to call Arani by the name Satyavijayanagaram. .[3] Satyapriya Tirtha served the pontificate for seven years. He died in 1744 and his mortal remains are enshrined in a mutt in Manamadurai.[2] Satyapriya Tirtha was succeeded by Satyabodha Tirtha
