We have heard several stories and legends about God incarnations, godmen and acharyas in the past, but very rarely can we come into the living presence of divinity like His Holiness Tridandi Srimannarayana Chinna Jeeyar Swamy.

His Holiness Sri Sri Sri Tridandi Srimannarayana Ramanuja Chinna Jeeyar Swamiji was born on Diwali day the Festival of lights on 3rd November, 1956 at Arthamur Village near Rajamundry in the State of Andhra Pradesh, India.  Born to pious parents Sri VenkataChari and Srimathi Alivelumanga Thayaru. He had his early education in the Oriental School, Gowthama Vidya Peetham, Rajamundry. 

Swamiji is one of the youngest of all the Indian Acharyas today, who are affiliated to different branches of the Vedic Dharma.

Swamiji was educated in Vedanta at Nadigaddapalem, under the guidance of H.H.Pedda Jeeyar Swamiji and Gopalacharya Swamy, before his initiation to the Jeeyar Peetham at Nadigaddapalem.  As a student, he was inquisitive about the teachings and axioms of  the Vedic Dharma, and devoted himself to an intense study and committed practice of the Vedic principle in order to redeem mankind from the temptations of sin and evil.  In 1980, H.H.Pedda Jeeyar Swamiji attained Siddhi and H.H.Chinna Jeeyar Swamiji took over the spiritual lineage. 

In 1981, Swamiji became the fully - fledged head and Acharya of the Srimad Ubhaya Vedanta Acharya Peetham, Nadigaddapalem.  Since then, Swamiji has developed the spiritual activities in a manifold way.  In 1984, he started the Vedic University under the aegis of Jeeyar Educational Trust (JET), which is one of its kind to establish and propagate the Vedic science. 

A number of young children are given admission into the university and they are taught the Vedas, the Upanishads and the related Vedangas.  Their entire responsibility of board and lodge is taken by the university.  Further, the students are ensured of a comfortable living and professional security after completing their studies at the Vedic University.
