Shri Kashi Math was founded around 1540 AD by Shri Vijayindra Teertharu of Rayara Math (then known as Vibhudendra Math), during his Chaturmasya in Cochin, at the invitation of the Kochi Gowda Saraswat Brahmin (GSB) community.
He initiated a brahmachari from the GSB community into sanyasa at Kashi and established the matha there. Since then, the lineage continues unbroken, and only brahmacharis are initiated into the peetha.
The current pontiff is Shri Samyamindra Teertharu.
