  1. iam from uttaradhi matha, please add that also

  2. Uttaradi matha is missing from the list.

    Isnt Chitrapura Matha an Advaita matha?

    • Namaskara Sri Rao,

      There is a Chitrapura Matha belonging to the Madhva sect also and is located on the Mangalore Udupi highway.

      Regards, Hari

  3. Uttaradi mutt is the most important in the sense followers or population is the highest among all the mathas in madhwa sumpradya. They may not be involved with Udupi matha but they are largest in number of followers when compared to other mathas.

  4. Any details available about the Madhwa Chitrapura Matha? Whose parampare it is? Which are the samsthana murthis? Who is the Swamiji?
