Why The Mulukanadu community instead of Mulukanadu community?--Vyzasatya 20:35, 16 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Good Article, --203.118.135.21 22:21, 2 March 2006 (UTC) Ganesh[reply]

Couple of comments - 1. The more common name for this community is mul*a*kanADu and not muluka...

2. The original writer of the article added shrI abhinava vidyAtIrtha swAmIji - but forgot his guru and paramaguru - who were greater figures in the sringeri maTha - shrI chandrashekhara bhAratI and shrI shivAbhinava-nR^isimhabhAratI. The Sringeri maTha has had many pontiffs from the mulakanADu community. Maybe the original author would like to add this to the article?

3. Are Mulukanadu Brahmins originally from Maharashtra ? The oldest Brahmin community in Maharashtra is Deshastha Brahmins. Could Mulukanadu Brahmins be a a branch of Deshastha Brahmins that moved to Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 20.137.2.50 (talk) 18:47, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Points

Someone keeps putting in "Munikulavadu." What does it mean?? Where is this theory proposed? Please read WP:NOR and refrain from putting in original research
"Sanskrit for religious purposes" is all very well, but in that case why not English / German / Swahili?? Please read WP:NN and refrain.

in that case why not English / German / Swahili??*Because none of these is spoken by this community. That's why:).No probs as far as munikulavadu goes if you think it is OR.Babub 04:01, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nice contribution! I am a 'Mulk'.

Provenance

One of the authors has attributed the presense of Mulakanadu brahmins in Rayalaseema region is more due to proximity of the region to Karnataka and T'nadu. I don't think so. The Mulakanadu brahmins mostly have migrated during the reigns of Vijayanagara and the subsequent Maratha rulers. The reasons being 1) Patronage of the afore mentioned reigns and 2) To escape from Muslim oppression in native region (Andhra areas) after the fall of Vijayanagara empire.

Sri Tyagaraja himself in one of the songs mentions of his origin from Kakarla village which is in Kurnool region. I have presonally met people who still know where their ancestral places in Andhra were (which was many many generations back).

A Great Community

The contribution of Mulakanadu Brahmins is simply phenomenal in virtually every sphere of life. Every Telugu person should feel proud of them.Kumarrao 11:15, 21 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
