Sri Suttur Math
Sri Suttur Math is a movement, committed to uphold the cause of social and economic justice based on spiritual values and ideals. The activities of the math transcend the sectarian limits of the Veerasaiava community and encompass a much wider and larger following of all sections of Indian society.
Sri Jagadguru Veerasimhasana Suttur Math with a long history of more than one thousand years is a multi-dimensional institution that has contributed immensely to the cause of societal advancement. Over thousand years since its establishment, a lineage of pontiffs have done yeomen service for the betterment of mankind. At any given point in time, over 50,000 students study in its educational institutions. Nearly three lakh patients are treated in the hospitals and clinics run by the Math every year.
With its administrative head-quarters located at the foot of the picturesque Chamundi Hills, in the erstwhile princely city of Mysuru, Sri Suttur Veerasimhasana Math is today recognized as a major mission, and is drawing seekers of knowledge and wisdom in large numbers. The activities of the Math have drawn accolades from various quarters from the layman to the heads of states.
“Work is Worship” the mantra that guides the Math is enshrined in its emblem. “Selfless Service” is the spirit behind every task that the Math undertakes and since the service is considered to be an offering to Lord Shiva, its purity and intention are of utmost importance.
Sri SutturVeerasimhasana Math has grown over the centuries to be a multidimensional educational movement. Spearheading the Math’s educational initiatives is Jagadguru Sri ShivarathreeswaraMahavidyapeetha (JSS MVP), founded by the 23rd Pontiff, Jagadguru Dr. Sri ShivarathriRajendraMahaswamigalu.
