Satyasandha Tirtha (Śrī Satya-sandha Tīrtha) (c.1733 - c.1794), was a Hindu philosopher, scholar, mystic and saint. He was the 26th pontiff of Uttaradi Math and served the pontificate from 1783 to 1794.^[1]

Works

Most of the information about his life is derived from two hagiographies, Sri Satyasandha Vijaya by Koneratmaja and Guruvamsakathakalpatharu by Bhimadhaivajna.^[2] Satyasandha Tirtha is an author of one commentary, and one praise-poem, both his works are most revered among Madhwa community. His Viṣṇusahasranāmabhāṣya is a commentary on Vishnu Sahasranama. His another work is Vishnu Stuti, a praise-poem on Lord Vishnu.^[3][4][5]

In culture

Sri Satyasandha Vijaya is a story of the victory and biography of Satyasandha Tirtha. The hagiography was authored by Koneratmaja. Satyasandha was entombed with his living body and is believed to be alive in the Brindavana even today. A very marvellous incident is graphically described in Satyasandha Vijaya about being alive in the Brindavana many years after his entrance into it.^[6]
