  1. Yea Upto 1981 it was Shri MahaPeriyava. Then it was Pudhu MahaPeriyava Jaya Jaya Shankara Hara Hara Shankara.

  2. Pudhu Periyava. I remember in one of the videos “Shree Muthuram mama” mentions that MahaPeriyava handed over the reigns to Pudhu Periyavaa in 1961 itself…

  3. Peetadipathi/Matadhipathi is only one; i.,e Adipathi for a Matam/Peetam — Head of the Matam; although there may be more than one successors selected.
    Hence, Mahaperiyvaa.
