Shri Satyavijaya Tirtha (died 1737) (Śrī Satya-vijaya Tīrtha) was an Indian Hindu philosopher, guru, and scholar.

Biography

According to hagiographies,Satyavijaya Tirtha was born Pandurangi Balacharya in a prominent family of scholars to Pandurangi Srinivasacharya. Satyavijaya Tirtha was given sanyasa by Satyapurna Tirtha with specific instructions that he, in turn, should hand over the Samsthana to his asrama senior Satyapriya Tirtha. Since Satyavijaya Tirtha was older in age he was given opportunity to be the Pontiff of Uttaradi Math after Satyapurna Tirtha.[6] Satyavijaya Tirtha served as the pontiff of Uttaradi Math from 1726 - 1737. During this time according to manuscripts which dates to 1726 A.D Satyavijaya Tirtha was honoured in Varadharaja Perumal Temple, Kanchipuram with certain privileges.[7] In 1737 he handed over the pontificate to Satyapriya Tirtha. He died in 1737 and his mortal remains are enshrined in a mutt in Sathiyavijayanagaram (Arani) on the banks of river Kaveri.[8]

Legacy

The village where his Brindavana (tomb) is located is name after him as Satya Vijaya Nagaram in Tamil Nadu.[9]

gollark: I mean, it sounds good, except if it worked that well we presumably would not have large amounts of memory-related bugs in major projects?

gollark: It's just a fuzzer/issue detection thing, right? Not as good as actually having the type system enforce non-stupid stuff.

gollark: Or they could just use tools which make it harder to write code with memory leaks/corruption/whatever.

gollark: I *was* considering recompiling nginx with LibreSSL.

gollark: There is, what is it again, rustls, though. Maybe they'll provide some way to replace openssl with that.
