Pejawar Math
Pejawar Math is a prominent Hindu monastic institution located in Udupi, Karnataka, India. Founded in the 13th century by Vishwesha Tirtha, it is one of the eight mathas established by Madhvacharya, the proponent of the Dvaita philosophy. The matha plays a significant role in promoting spiritual teachings and rituals in the region.
The Pejawar Math is known for its contributions to the Vaishnavism tradition and its involvement in various social and educational initiatives. The current head, Vishwesha Tirtha Swamiji, has been influential in fostering interfaith dialogue and community service, making the matha a center for both spiritual and social development.
