Sri Adichunchanagiri Mahasamsthana Math has a history of 2000 years of its existence. Sri Math is located at Sri Adichunchanagiri Kshetra, Nagamangala Taluk, Mandya District, Karnataka State. Sri Kshetra is blessed by Lord Shiva. Lord Shiva performed penance at Sri Kshetra, during which he devoured two demons, Chuncha and Kancha, who were pestering elements of the area for a very long time. At the end of his austerity, Lord Shiva entrusted a Siddayogi, establishing a ‘Natha tradition’ and guided him to disseminate the righteousness in the society. It is the holy land engulfed with the divine resonance and vibration. Ancient Vedic culture was founded here on spirituality, where Nature is valued and worshipped. This ancient “Dharma Peetha” has successfully preserved & propagated the Indian heritage through ages.  Due to the presence of Panchalingas, Sri Kshetra Adichunchanagiri is also popularly called as ‘Panchalinga Kshetra’. The lush green woods and serenity of the lakes provide a sanctified atmosphere for spiritual aspirants to meditate and the Seers to internalize themselves. Besides, the Math is striving for the welfare & betterment of the common people, particularly those of rural areas.
