Buddinni (pronounced "bhu-dhi-nni") (Kannada: ಬುದ್ದಿನ್ನಿ) is a village in the Raichur District of the Indian state of Karnataka.
Buddinni lies off the Maski-Lingsugur main Road (Karnataka-SH-19) and is situated between the town of Maski on the East and the town of Lingsugur on the West.
Shiroor Math is one of the eight original Udupi Maths (Ashta-Maths) established by Saint Madwacharya. In 1766 AD, (naLa-naama samvathsara), on the day of "magha-shukla-panchami," the pontiff of Shiroor Math (ಶಿರೂರು ಮಠ) at the time HH Lakshmi Manohara Theertha, established a separate Math exclusively for the followers of "shukla yajurvEda,"; under the aegis of the Shiroor, at a place called ‘Hunasi-Hole’ (pronounced hunasee hoLay; ಹುಣಸೀ ಹೊಳೆ); the Shiroor pontiff ordained a devotee and a scholar by name Venkateshacharya and installed him as the pontiff for the new Math under the name "Maadhava Theertha." Hunasi-Hole’ is in today's Kalburgi district (Gulbarga district) – Surapura Taluk, and continues to be a center for Kanva school of thought and philosophy.
The main deity at the above Kanva Math is "the thaandava vittala krishna" as also "Gopalakrishna" in consort with Rukmini and Satyabhama.
The Brindavana of the HH the Maadhava Theertha, was constructed in the village Buddinni in AD 1810, since at the time, it is said that HH the Maadhava Theertha was persecuted and had sought refuge at Buddinni.
The above Madhwa Kanva Math follows Dwaita Siddhanta and Madhwa philosophy under the Dvaita system, with the Sampradayas' of the Madhwacharaya-Tradition.
The saint-sage HH Madhava Theertha is said to appear in the form of "Sesha-Swarupa" (or in the sacred serpentine form) in the dreams of devotees who are blessed; very rarely does the sage appear in dreams in a human form. It is said that the sage once appeared in a human form to a Muslim youth and blessed him; the youth converted as a Hindu, and became a devotee of HH the Madhava Theertha, and was well-known later as "RamaDas" (see the picture below).
