Speaking on the occasion, Sri Siddeshwara Swamji of Gnanayogashrama, Vijayapura, recalled the selfless service of Sri Shivakumara Swamiji for the last 80 years providing food, shelter and education to students. He said that the students educated at the Mutt were spread all around the world in coveted positions and added that offering ‘Guru Vandana’ was the right proposition to do for the great person.
