The Sri-vidyadhiraja-vijaya^[1] is written by Sri. Mutukulam Sridhar. In this poem describing the city of Tvm, the poet introduces the village of Kannammula where the hero of the poem Vidyadhiraja or Cattampisvami lived. The birth of the Guru, the primary education he received are described in succession. Even while he was young he dedicated himself to Lord Subrahmanya.

A description of the Sahya mountain follows in the third canto. The Guru resorted to the mount Marutva and began his ascetic practices there. Cantos three to five contain the Guru in the services of the people, and his visit to the temple Aniyur in Tvm.

The meeting of Srinarayanaguru and Cattampisvami is related in the sixth canto. Cantos seven to eleven are devoted to the description of the meeting of Nilakantha-tirthapada, and the latter accepting studentship. The visit of Chattampisvami to a number of palaces is also described here.

Cantos twelve to seventeen of the Srividyadhirajavijaya summarise the miracle performed by Cattampisvami, his services to the people, his meeting with Vivekananda at Ernakulam, the rescue of passengers of the boat capsized at the sea port, the founding of an Asrama at Ettumanur, the celebration of the sixtieth birthday of the Svami and so on. The Samadhi of both Nilakanthatirthapada and Cattampisvami is described in the eighteenth canto. The concluding canto of the poem deals with the construction of a Samadhimandapa at Panmana in Quilon^[2].
