Present Sole Trustee – His Holiness Shri Abhinava Gavisiddeshwara Mahaswamiji

His Holiness Shri Abhinava Gavisiddeshwara Mahaswamiji, the current Sole Trustee, holds postgraduate degrees in English, Philosophy, and Sanskrit. He is a scholar, orator, thinker, creative worker, educationist, and reformer, as well as a devoted disciple of his Guruji. Embodying “Gurubhakti” and “Kriyashakti,” he sees himself as a humble servant chosen by his Guruji to uphold and advance the greatness of Shri Gavimath for the betterment of all.

Moved by the difficult circumstances faced by the poor in educating their children, Mahaswamiji initiated the “Shikshan Yagna,” a mission of educational empowerment as a form of worship to his Guruji. He established a range of educational institutions offering courses from nursery to PG, including D.Ed, B.Ed, BCA, BBM, B.A, B.Sc, B.Com & M.Com, as well as Nursing, Paramedical, and Pharmacy Colleges. He also pioneered the establishment of a residential school with a CBSE syllabus.

The esteemed lineage of Peethadhipatis has elevated the spiritual standing of Shri Gavimath, dedicating themselves to global service through the unique contribution of “Trividha Dasoha” (Food, Education, and Spiritual Knowledge), earning the admiration of countless disciples. Under the guidance of Mahaswamiji, the Sri Gavisiddeshwar Vidya Vardhaka Trust continues to explore new avenues for growth in quality education. His social reform initiatives, such as Jala Deeksha, Laksha Vrukshotsava, and Krupa Drishti, undertaken during the annual Gavimatha Jatra, have further strengthened the Trust’s mission and impact.
