Raghuttama Tirtha (Sanskrit:रघूत्तम तीर्थ); IAST:Śrī Raghūttama Tīrtha) (c. 1548 - c. 1596), was an Indian philosopher, scholar, theologian and saint.

He served as the fourteenth pontiff of Madhvacharya Peetha - Uttaradi Math from 1557 to 1595, which he occupied for thirty-nine years.

[5][6] According to Gurucaryā, the childless couple approached saint Raghuvarya Tirtha, who granted them boon of children with the condition that their first child, would in turn be handed over to him.

These words brought a mixture of happiness and sorrow to the childless couple but they accepted the decree of the divinity.

[7] Raghuvarya Tirtha made arrangements to feed the child every day with the abhishekha milk of the Vyasa Kurma Saligram of the Matha.

[2] After completing thirty-nine years on the sacred pontifical seat of Uttaradi Matha, Raghuttama Tirtha desired to enter the Brindavana.

So he ordered the then Zamindar of Vettavalam Now At Tiruvannamalai District, in a dream to construct a Brindavana at Manampoondi a village near Tirukoilur on the bank of the river South Pennar.

Raghuttama Tirtha composed these Bhavabhodas to reveal the essence and deeper meanings of Shri Madhvacharya's and Sri Jayatirtha's works.

[11] Raghuttama Tirtha is regarded as a saint known for preaching the worship of Lord Vishnu regardless of caste or creed.

His shrine in Tirukoilur at present has become a holy seat of pilgrimage and a vast number of devotees belonging to all castes and creeds perform seva even today.

[4] Raghuttama Tirtha, through his commentaries and preachings, carried the torch of the philosophy of Madhvacharya during his times.
