In 1875 he was married to Annapurnabai, daughter of Babajipant Gode (pronounced as Go-Day) from Sawantwadi near Goa at the age of 21 years.

He was an expert Sanskrit scholar right from his childhood. His fame increased over the years and he became Vasudevanad-saraswati after visiting Narasoba Wadi, one of the famous Dattatreya temple where Shri Narasimha Saraswati stayed for 12 years, 500 years before. He has also authored the book "Datta mahtmya". He became a sanyasi 13 days after his wife's death in 1891. His guru Shrimant Govindswami gave him the sanyas in his dream.

He died on 1914 on Jyeshtha Vadya Amavasya (no moon day). His body was put into the Narmada River.
