As per the request and humble demand from citizens of Texas, Shri Swamiji, with an intention that devotees get showered with blessings of Shri Krishna and especially Shri Guru Raayaru, established the Shri Krishna Vrundavana priest house in Houston TX on Nov 16th 2011 near US 59 & Wilcrest. Shri Swamiji established this matha and offered it to the people of Texas with a noble intention that pooja be performed 3 times daily, Anna daana be done in the afternoon and night and to provide space for conducting the dharmic rituals on festivals and other hari dinas (holy days).
The Shri Krishna temple was established around 800 years ago, by Shri Madhvacharya and today is popularly known as Udupi Krishna temple. Acharya Madhva gave a very invaluable gift to future generations by appointing his 8 disciples to conduct the pooja of Lord Shri Krishna at Udupi which also helped spread the good principles of Dvaita teachings and philosophy.
Our most respected & beloved guru Shri Shri Sugunendra Theertha swamiji comes from the line of pontiffs appointed to Puthige matha, by Shri Madhvacharya. In these times of violence, unrest & communal hatred prevalent in the world, Shri Shri Swamiji has taken up the great and arduous task of touring around the world and spread the message of peace, brotherhood, harmony and co-existence of different religions.
During his world tours Shri Swamiji established branches of the Shri Puthige matha in North America in Arizona, New Jersey, Los Angeles, Texas, & Toronto. The matha established in Houston, TX is one among the different mathas that Shri Swamiji has established.
