Tiruvanantapuram


Thiruvananthapuram also known as Syanandurapuri, is the abode of Lord Sree Padmanabha, capital of erstwhile Travancore Kingdom and presently the capital of state of Kerala. This is one of the 108 Divya Desams of Vaishnava cult. Known for its rich heritage and culture, this is a beautiful place.

The Math is built in 10 cents of square plot by the side of the main road, when H.H. Abhinava Vidyatheertha Swamigal visited Thiruvananthapuram about 44 years back, expressed his desire to have a branch of Sringeri Math at Thiruvananthapuram. The devotees took up the matter and the  Math was built  and the activities were in 1966.

  • For the protection of the righteous ones (committed to dharma), for the destruction of the unrighteous ones (follow adharma), and for the establishment of dharma I take birth in every age. Bhagavan Sri Krishna on Significance of God
  • O devotee, (with the mind) fixed upon the lotus feet of the Guru! May you soon be free from Samsara. Through the control of the senses and the mind, you shall behold the Lord indwelling in your heart! Jagadguru Sri Adi Shankara Bhagavatpada on Mohamudgara
  • Have firm faith in God, his words and his servants. Have staunch belief in your religion and in dharma. Jagadguru Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
  • An ideal disciple will indeed act as per the Guru’s instructions and not give place to thoughts as “Is it possible for me to do as he says? Shall I try something else?” If we follow our Guru’s instructions, it does not mean that we are unintelligent. It only implies that we have surrendered for our own good to a power superior to us. Jagadguru Sri Abhinava Vidyatirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
  • If we poke our nose into matters that do not concern us, it is we who lose our precious time. Jagadguru Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God's Names
