Life

Satyapriya was initially given ashrama by Satyapurna Tirtha. When Sri Satyapurna Tirtha fell ill, and Sri Satyapriya Tirtha was on tour to propagation 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. Even now it is well known by that name. [2] The Brindavana of Satyapurna Tirtha is in Kolpur.
