Sri Satyapramoda Tirtha established Jayateertha Vidyapeetha in 1989, which presently holds more than 200 students and 15 teaching faculty members, in the subjects of Dvaita Vedanta, Vyakarana, Nyaya and Nyayasudha, a work on Dvaita Vedanta which has been published by this institution.

His work Nyayasudha Mandanam is an answer to Anantakrishna Sastri's, (an advaita scholar) criticism of Jayatirtha's Nyaya Sudha and the general criticism of the post-Sankara Advaita thinkers of Dvaita.[6][7][8]
