Sri Yadavendra Teertharu one of the close relatives (poorvashrama son in law – sister’s son ) of Sri Sudheendra Teertha’s poorvashrama, sought Sanyasa from Sudheendra Teertharu. Even from his early age itself, he was demanding for sanyasa from Sudheendraru, but he was refusing. But he had plenty of jnaana, bhakti, vairagya, and was observing various vrathaas, upavaasaas right from his childhood. One day, he approached Sri Sudheendra Teertharu and requested for sanyasa once again. Sudheendra Tirtharu just to test him asked Whether you need mahasamsthaanadipathya or you are demanding sanyasa just because of vairagya. At this he told that he does not need maha samsthaanadipathyaâ. Sudheendra Teertharu happy with the opinion and vairagya in him gave sanyasa, and gave him phala mantrakshate, with mantra mudra dharana, guroopadesha and named him Sri Yadavendra Teertha. He also gave him Sri Garuda Vahana Lakshminarayana devaru, Sri Krishna idols, some saaligraamas, idol of Mukya Pranadevaru and pooja paatres and blessed him. Yadavendra Teertharu did the guru seva for several days and went on Teertha kshetra yatre. He was not given the Vedanta samrajya by Sri Sudheendra Teertharu.
