He had thousands of disciples who followed his principles and theories.

Biography

There is no historical evidence about Veerabrahmam's exact date of birth but believed to be in 1608. The legend born to religious couple 'Paripurnayacharya' and 'Prakruthamba' of a vishwabrahmina family near the river Saraswathi in Brahmandapuram village. The couple sacrifed Swamy's birth and Veerambotlayya was brought up at Atri Mahamuni Ashram near Kashi. Later, Veerabhojayacharya, Head of the Paapagni Mutt, Chikballapur, Karnataka, was on his pilgrimage tour with his wife. The couple visited the Sage Atri Ashram, and Sage Atri gave the child to the Veerabhojayacharya and Prakruthamba couple. The Veerabhojayacharya couple took the child as God's gift, and returned to Paapagni Mutt. The child was named as 'Veeram Bhotlaiah'. Veerabrahmendra Swamy, as Veerambhotliah at Paapagni Mutt, at the age of 11, authored the Kalikamba Sapthashathi (the manuscript written in praise of goddess Kalikamba). A few days later, Veerabhojayacharya sacrifed and Veerambhotlayya told his step mother that he has refused to take homage responsibilities and started his spiritual journey. His prime disciple was 'Siddaiah', who was a Muslim by birth.

People started listening to his chantings and philosophical poems and with due respect, called him 'Srimadvirat Pothuluri Veera Brahmendra Swami'.[1] Thousands of people gathered to hear his famous Kaalagnanam(Over 14000 Prophecy's). He predicted that amrutam will come out from bark of a tree which took place near markolpalli . For 3 days from trees bark and the interesting thing is no human could touch it or drinkthe moment someone placed their hands amrutam would disappear or stop coming out It is credited that he predicted Ramakrishna Hegde, M.G.R and NTR to rule in democracy. He predicted the Kurnool floods. According to his followers, almost 90 percent of his predictions came true. The much publicized Yaganti Basavaiah to live and shout is yet to happen. There are many stories in Andhra Pradesh about his life, but very few of them are backed with historical evidence.

Sri Veerabrahmendra Swamy went into 'Jeevasamadhi' in year 1694 AD, equivalent to Kaliyug 4694 on Vaishak Shudha Dashami.

In later period of Kaliyug end, Veerabrahmendra Swamy would take re-birth as Veerabhogavasantharayulu and rule for 1008 years.
