-II (Shirali) ||
Shri Shankarashram-I having attained Samadhi suddenly, without adopting any
shishya, caused anxiety among the followers. The local authorities threatened to attach
all the assets belonging to the Math.
At this juncture some elders recalled that a saintly person from Pandit family, who had earlier been ordained by the Swamiji was in Kollur, practising Yoga and would be a worthy successor. When approached and earnestly prayed, He graciously agreed to succeed to the Peetha. He was Shri Parijnanashram-II. He however did not like to wield power. He therefore adopted a shishya from Shukla family with the yogapatta of Shri Shankarashram-II, and spent greater part of His life in Kollur, though He often visited Shri Chitrapur Math.
The Samadhi of Shri Parijnanashram-II is located at the right side of the Hodi Samadhi at the Chitrapur Math.
