Pajaka village in Udupi is the birthplace and the hereditary home of Sri Madhavacharya who is a Dvaita philosopher. This place of natural beauty has a Banyan tree which was grown by Sri Madhva. The famous spot of this village is where the philosopher lifted two huge big stones and placed them over the pots and is also well known for the four ponds, the place from where he took water. The Madhva Mandira, a Vidyapeeta near the house is where the Vedas and Sanskrit are taught to the students and numerous pious activities take place.
