He erected and consecrated the image of Lord Krishna at Udipi. Madhavas bear the impress of the symbols of Vishnu upon their breasts and shoulders which are stamped with a hot iron. Their marks on the foreheads consist of two perpendicular lines made with Gopichandana and joined at the root of the nose. They make a straight black line (using charcoal from incense offered to Krishna), which terminates in a round mark made with turmeric. The Madhavas are divided into two classes called the Vyasakutas and the Dasakutas.  Truthfulness, study of scriptures, generosity, kindness, faith and freedom from envy form the moral code of Madhavas.
