Udupi Sri Krishna Matha, Hindu temple and monastery in Udupi, India
The temple complex features wooden pillars, intricate stone carvings, and multiple ceremonial halls surrounding the central shrine dedicated to Lord Krishna.
Madhvacharya, founder of the Dvaita school of Vedanta philosophy, established this religious institution during the thirteenth century as a center for spiritual learning.
The temple maintains eight monastic institutions called Ashta Mathas, which rotate administrative duties every two years through a ceremony called Paryaya.
Visitors must remove shoes, maintain silence during prayer times, and wear appropriate clothing when entering the temple premises between 5:00 AM and 9:00 PM.
The temple deity appears through a silver-plated window with nine holes, known as Navagraha Kitiki, positioned behind a solid silver mandala.
