The kAshi maTa was started for kochi gowda saraswath brahmin (GSB) community by shri vijayIndra tIrtharu of rAyara maTa (then called vibhudEndra maTa) around 1540 when he was doing chAturmAsya in Cochi at the invitation of the GSB community. He initiated a brahmachAri from the GSB community of Cochi into sanyAsa at kAshi and had a maTa built there. Hence it came to be known as kAshi maTa. The parampare continues to this day and the current pITAdhipathi is samyamIndra tIrtharu. Only brahmachArIs come into the pITa in this maTa.
