Shri Gyananidhi Teertha Sripadangalavaru (also referred to as Shri Gnananidhi Teertharu) was the 23rd Pontiff of Shri Sripadaraja Math, serving from 1788 to 1800. He succeeded Shri Vidyanidhi Teertharu and was the Guru of Shri Gunanidhi Teertharu.
After assuming the responsibilities of the Math, he initially returned to Mulbagal and dedicated himself to the worship of the Brindavan of Shri Sripadaraja. He later undertook extensive tours across South India to spread the teachings of the Math and Madhwa Siddhanta. During his travels, he developed a deep affinity for Srirangapatna and eventually made it his permanent residence.
His Moola Brindavan is located at Watergate, Srirangapatna, one of the historically and spiritually significant regions of Karnataka.
