The Brahmins are a community of Hindus, who belong to the Brahmin varna.[1] The main lineages{{see also|Gotra}}Brahmins are originally divided in eight gotra, but in time these subdivided into other ancestor (Pravara) sages in their genealogy, in addition to the founder of the gotra. At the same time as the member families of the gotra dispersed to different regions of India each regional group within the gotra came to have more in common with the members of other gotras in the region, culture affiliation and lifestyle, than the members of their own gotra living elsewhere in India.These trans-gotra affiliations led to the formation of a number of regional endogamous Brahmin Jatis.[2] According to Brahmanical culture, there are gotrakarins or eight rishis from whom the remaining 49 or more gotras are evolved or descended.[3] They are Jamdagni, Gautama, Bharadwaja, Vishvamitra, Vasistha, Kashyapa, Atri, Garg and Agastya.[4] The remaining gotras other than gotrakarins are said to be Pravaras.[5][6] References1. ^{{cite book|title=Hindus: Their Religious Beliefs and Practices|url=https://books.google.co.in/books?id=HDMLYkIOoWYC|publisher=Psychology Press|author=Julius Lipner|page=113|isbn=9780415051811}} 2. ^{{cite book|title=The First Spring Part 1: Life in the Golden Age of India|url=https://books.google.co.in/books?id=sqFQAwAAQBAJ|publisher=Penguin UK|author=Abraham Eraly|page=Contents|accessdate=1 May 2014|isbn=9789351186458}} 3. ^{{cite book|title=Thinking about Evolution: Historical, Philosophical, and Political Perspectives, Volume 2|url=https://books.google.co.in/books?id=HmVbYJ93d-AC|publisher=Cambridge University Press|author=Rama S.
