The Sringeri Mutt Complex includes two temples built as a shrine to Adi Shankara. The first of these is the Shankara Temple, dedicated to Adi Shankara himself, celebrating the stories around his life and his teachings.+
The second, known as the Sringeri, is dedicated to the Goddess Sharada, the patron saint of the Sringeri Mutt. This shrine, located on the banks of the Periyar is an integral part of the culture around Adi Shankara’s life, which is celebrated in so many ways at Kalady.+
