Shri Sheshachala Sadguru was a great power in spreading Dharma. He set up the Anandavana outside Agadi. He could undertake great tasks and yet did not project himself in the lime light. Anandvan became an important education centre. Thousands used to come and benefit from Anandvan. On Chaitra Bahula Shasti every year, even to this day, more than fifty thousand people participate in the Chidambara Jayanthi celebrations. His children and grandchildren have maintained the tradition. His main disciples were Sri Shankar Bhagwan, Sri LingaBhagwan and Sri Narayana Bhagwan. These disciples spread the teachings and greatness of their Guru. A temple by the name of Sheshachaleshwara has been built on the Samadhi of Sri Seshachala Sadguru at Anandvana. Sri Sheshachala Sadguru's Guru was Sri Shiva Chidambara Mahaprabhu.
