Shri Chitrapur Mat̲h̲

Present Mathadhipati Shri Sadyojat Shankarashram Swamiji

In 1953, some Chitrapur Saraswats were inspired by Parama Pujya Shrimad Anandashram Swamiji to acquire property in the name of Lord Bhavanishankar, the presiding deity of Shri Chitrapur Math, Shirali, North Karnataka.

Initially, when the Math was established, it was used as a summer retreat and transit accommodation for Parama Pujya Shrimad Anandashram Swamiji. Gradually, all socio-religious activities were shifted to the Math.
