INTRODUCTION
Sri Purushotamma Teertha was a great madhwa saint who lived during the 15th century. His guru was Sri Jayadhwaja Teertha and his disciple was Sri Brahmanya Teertha. It is believed that during the year 1460, he entered alive in a cave near Abbur, Karnataka, similar to his guru Sri Madhwacharya who was disappeared inside the flowers, and settled down at Bhadrikashram and still serving Guru Sri Vyasa Bhagavan in a wonderful manner.
He was a great saint and a sincere devotee of Lord Srirama and Srikrishna. He used to perform puja to the deities in a proper manner, and distribute the holy Prasad to the devotees without seeing their caste, creed or community. It is believed that still now he is blessing the devotees from the cave, and he is still performing meditation on Lord Rama inside the cave without disclosing his identity.
Let us worship the great saint and be blessed.
