[JNANA MANTAPA KSHETRA]
Vidwan Marutacharya beautifully explains about that Sadvidya Parampara which carefully nurtured the young Yatiraja who would later go on to become one of the greatest intellectual giants of Bharata Bhumi : Sri Vyasatirtha! (1)
Nikhila Tarkika Chudamani, Shaddarshana Kovida Sri Rajendratirtha set foot into the holy of Bengal to spread the message of the Shastras! His successor Sri Jayadhvajatirtha expanded the Digvijaya to the Kalinga Deshas (the karya kshetra of Sri Naraharitirtha) (2)
It is at Puri that Sri Jayadhvaja appointed an able successor and named him after the holy Kshetra. Sri Purushottamatirtha, an unparalleled tapasvi of his time proceeded to Ramaprameya Kshetra (Maluru) via Sri Kurmam, Simhachala, Godavari, Vijayawada etc with Tattvaprachara (3)

[YUGĀDI SANDEŚA: IMPORTANCE OF VIHITA KARMĀNUSHTHĀNA]

~ Translating the original sandeśa by Śrī Vyāsarāja Vidyā-Karnātaka Simhāsanādhīśvara Parama Pūjya Śrī Śri 1008 Śrī Vidyāśrīśatīrtha Śrīpādangalavaru for the benefit of the audience. (1) Image
"आचारप्रभवो धर्मः धर्मस्य प्रभुरच्युतः", as it goes by this saying, Dharma paripālana is only possible with the right knowledge & practice of Sadācāras! Bhagavān stands by those who stand by Dharma! Therefore, one must never let go of their prescribed duties (Vihita karma)(2)
Even those who have been blessed with Aparokśa Jñāna follow their Vihita Karmas! The Upanishads have thrown light on this with "कुर्वन्नेवेह कर्माणि जिजीवेषेच्छतं समाः" (By/For performing duties to please Bhagavan, one should wish to live a hundred years in this world) (3)

Interestingly enough, Mahabharata says that Yudhishthira too seemed to have reached a similar conclusion after having pondered about the same question. However, this was cleared by Indra in the Swargarohana Parva where the nija svarupa of Bhima was showcased to Yudhishthira (1)
"अथापरस्मिन्नुद्देशे 'मरुद्गणवृतं विभुम्' |
'भीमसेन'मतापश्यत्तेनैव वपुषासन्वितं ||
'वयोर्मुर्तिर्मतः' पार्श्वे दिव्यमुर्तिसमन्वितम् |
श्रिया परमया युक्तं सिद्धिं परमिकां गतम् ||"
~ महाभारतम् (स्वर्गारोहणपर्व - 18/4) (2)
Indra introduces Bhima as the Supreme Chieften of the Marudganas. Bhima is seen shining in his moola svarupa as Vayu. To make it clear Bhima Rupa is also standing next 2 the Moola Rupa with the same effulgence emerging from the latter, indicating the nija svarupa of the former(3)

Not unpopular, its quite popular. Anyway, I'd addressed this typical "Smarta Man's Burden" delusion long ago in a few threads. Sectarianism is innate to the shastras,it is not evil! Every darshanika unequivocally championed for his darshana-paddhati & that ain't wrong at all!
A particular upasana paddhati is integrated to the prameyas of the darshana & no darshanika would encourage any deviation from them for his followers.Sanatana is much beyond a single paddhati. There are Vidhi Nishedhas for any paddhati system but there's also subscription choice.
The reason Sanatana survived is due to the eternal existence of these diverse darshanas/paddhatis. Unconditional unity begins when differences and nature to differ are acknowledged, accepted and accommodated. Those who downplay difference as temporary only unite temporarily
