Kannada Brahmins are Brahmins whose mother-tongue is the Kannada language. Nearly all of them hail from the south Indian state of Karnataka. ==Three sects== Adi Shankaracharya, founder of the Advaita philosophy chose Sringeri as the site for the first Matha. Ramanuja, founder of the Vishishtadvaita philosophy found sanctuary in Karnataka at a time when the Hoysala empire, ruled by Vishnuvardhana, were at their zenith. Madhvacharya, founder of the Tatva-vada philosophy, was the son of Karnataka. As such, Karnataka Brahmins belong to any one of three specific sects (schools of philosophy), being: *the Smartha sect - adherents of the Advaita philosophy propounded by Adi Shankaracharya. *the Srivaishnava sect - adherents of the Vishishtadvaita philosophy propounded by Ramanuja. *the Madhwa sect - adherents of the Tatva-vada philosophy propounded by Madhvacharya. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kannada Brahmins」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
