Brahacharanam

Brahacharanam is a sub-sect of the Iyer community of Tamil Brahmins. The word "Brahacharanam" is a corruption of the Sanskrit word Brhatcharanam ((サンスクリット:ब्रहतचरनम्)). Like other Iyer communities, they follow the ''Advaita'' philosophy propounded by Adi Shankara. However, the Brahacharanam are more Saivite than the Vadamas. The Brahacharanams, along with the Vadamas, form the major portion of the Kerala Iyer community.
The Brahacharanams, like the Vadamas, have a distinctive martial tradition which differentiate them from other Iyer communities. Members of the community served as ''Senapatis'' or army commanders under the Chola kings Raja Raja Chola I and Rajendra Chola I.
== Etymology ==
The word ''bruhat'' in Sanskrit means "great", "vast" or "significant" and the word ''charanam'' refers to feet. The name Brahacharanam can be thus literally translated as "feet of the greats" referring to the status of a Guru, and the Brahacharanam being those who follow in the footsteps of the Greats.
