Gowda Saraswat Brahmins : ウィキペディア英語版 | Goud Saraswat Brahmin
Gaud (also spelt as Gawd) Saraswat Brahmins are a Hindu Brahmin community in India and a part of the larger Saraswat Brahmin community. They are popularly referred to as GSBs. They can be classified either as Konkani or Marathi people. They primarily speak Konkani as their mother tongue, however many have native language proficiency in Marathi. According to studies by the Archaeological Survey of India of the Gokarna-Partagali Math, the migrations of this community are thought have originated from the Sintashta-Petrovka and Arkaim regions of modern day lower central Russia. Sub-sects of Saraswat Brahmins, unusually for the Brahmin caste, had also ruled as monarchs of pre-Islamic Afghan Kingdoms, such as the Shahis of Kabul. According to Mahesh Prabhu, fellow of the Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain and Ireland, the community is believed to have "played a pivotal role in the authoring of Rigveda," the sacred Sanskrit text, while residing by the lost river Saraswati during the Indus-Saraswati civilization approximately 4000 years ago. ==Rituals== During the eighth month of pregnancy, a woman moves to her mother's house, especially during the birth of her first child. The expecting mother also performs Ganapathi Pooja for a successful delivery and a healthy child. On the 6th day, a pen and lamp are kept near the child's head, symbolic of a wish for an intelligent child. On the 12th day, the naming and cradling ceremony is performed wherein the paternal grandmother whispers the child's name into his/her ear and a horoscope is cast. When the child turns three months old, they are taken to the temple, and thereafter the child goes to the father's abode.
