    This work touches upon the relationship that Tipu Sultan of Mysore maintained with the Sringeri Matha and Swami Sacchidananda Bharati (III), the then Sankaracharya of Sringeri. Contrary to some modern characterizations of Tipu Sultan as a fanatic Muslim ruler who persecuted his Hindu subjects, the records show that both Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan held the Sringeri Matha and other Hindu religious institutions in high reverence. During the Carnatic wars between Tipu and the British, some temples were damaged. Tipu Sultan wrote personally to the Sringeri Acharya, asking him to supervise the reconstruction and reconsecration of the temples in Kanchipuram and other places.
