Andhra Brahmins are of two types:

Shastry/ Sastri/ Sastry

Dravida Brahmins (Tamil / Karnataka/ Kerala)
Iyers and Iyengars are truly the only sect of Brahmis who have truly maintained their Brahmanical traditions to this day and in
that in modern day Hindusim, south Indian Brahmins are playing a much greater role than north Indians. Many south Indian
fluent in Sanskit, highly educated in secular subjects as well and regularly follow their festivals and events.
The only problem is that many Iyers and Iyengers, especially from TN are vehemently antiHindi and antiNorth Indian
worrisome matter.

Andhra Brahmins are missing.
There are two main groups in Andhra:
Niyogi
Vaidiki/Dravida
The surnames of AP brahmins could be very confusing, because in AP brahmins identify themselves with gotr
like Sharma, Deekshitulu, Joshyula, Mishrula, Dwibhashyula, Bhagvatula, Shashtrula, Shastry, Upadhyayula, S
Bhattula, Saraswatula is added.
It is so because, Brahmins into AP came from two or three groups. Came from northern India between 5th15 t
these three groups are linked to each other.

completely capitulated and is the most anti hindu state alongwith Kerala. Bihari brahmins are interested only in ego ga
not erudition/scholarly bent of mind. UP brahmins try to be in political arena with very little regard for scholarly achiev
for few of them. Gujarat , Rajasthan Delhi , Punjab brahmins are totally materialistic with no hint of brahminism in

I am a Rahree Brahman from WB. What I mostly see most brahmin families who even follow religion
are very ritualistic for the most part. They know and care the least about the true essence of the
religion or of being a brahman.Even the culturally and financially established brahmin families
nowadays send their children to such schools where they do not receive an iota of religious, moral
and ethical teachings. How will they eventually know how and where the greatness lies in this ancient religio
why they should also put their bit to preserve it especially when
they do not get it from even their parents who only believe that only mimicry of the ways of life
that are deemed superior to us would make their past, present and future glorious.

This site is a great one not only the issues it addresses but also the wealth of content it provides
to the reader. No words of praise isn't perhaps enough for the efforts of shree Subhodeep Mukhopadhyay.
He has rightly pointed out that, even the Brahmins in West Bengal let alone the rest of Hindu populace
are not awre of bare Hindu customs. The reality is so stark that it can be seen even with one's eyes
closed. I would wait with all eagerness to see if shree Mukhopadhyay can shed more light on this,in
another article, as to why and when West Bengal Brahmins lost in the way.
