History

Raghavendra Math is descended from Jagadguru Shri Madhvacharya through Vibhudendra Tirtha.[8][9][10] The Raghavendra Math was founded by Vibhudendra Tirtha in Kumbhakonam. So, earlier the matha was known as Kumbhakonam Matha or Dakshinadi Math and later the matha was made popular as Sri Vijayendra Mutt after Vijayendra Tirtha by Sudhindra Tirtha, a disciple and successor to the pontificate of Kumbakonam Matha. After Sudhindra Tirtha his disciple, the most venerated dvaita saint Raghavendra Tirtha continued in the pontifical lineage as the pontiff of the matha. The idol of the Moola Rama is worshipped in this Math. Its headquarters are now in Mantralayam, Andhra Pradesh, although they used to be in Nanjangud, Karnataka. This mutt is highly respected among Hindus all over the world. The matha was later named after Raghavendra Tirtha as Raghavendra Matha. Other common names still include Dakshinaadi Matha.
