A brief History of Kalagnanam written by Sri Veera Brahmendra SwamyPaperback, 11 June 2019

Pōtulūri Veerabrahmēndra Swami (Pōtulūri Veerabrahmēndra, also romanised Potuluru Veerabrahmendra) was a Hindu sage and oracle. He is considered to be the author of the Kālaṅñānaṁ, a book of predictions about the future. His prophetic texts are also known as the Govinda Vakyas. He also wrote Jeevaikya Bodha. Vīrabrahmēndra's birth date and lifespan are unknown. Conflicting theories hold that he was born either in the ninth century (in order to accommodate predictions written in the Kālaṅñānaṁ about the fall of dynasties during the ninth century) or in the seventeenth century According to legend, Veerabrahmam was born to a religious couple, Paripurnayacharya and Prakruthamba, who belonged to a vishwabrahmin/vishwakarma/Achary family near the river Sarasvati River in the village of Brahmandapuram. The couple abandoned Swamy at birth and Veerambrahmam was brought up at Atri Mahamuni Ashram near Kashi (present-day Varanasi). Later Veerabhojayacharya, Head of the Papagni Mutt, Chikballapur, Karnataka, was on a pilgrimage with his wife. The couple visited the Sage Atri Ashram, and Sage Atri gave the child to the couple.
