Welcome to this blog of the descendants of Sri Mahabhashyam Narasimham of Vizianagaram .
Our ancestors hail from Gazulapalle , Kurnool District. They were Sanskrit scholars . One of them , Seshadri Sastri went to Benares to prosecute his higher studies. On his return journey , the then Maharajah of Vizianagaram detained him in Vizianagaram and appointed him as the Asthana Pandit.His erudition was so great , particularly his commentary on Sankara's works , that he was conferred the title "
Mahabhashyam" which subsequently became the surname of the family .
Our original surname was "
Rudraksha"
