Dashanami Sampradaya
Dasanami Sampradaya (IAST ), literally Tradition of Ten Names, is a Hindu monastic tradition established by Adi Shankara in the 8th century CE in India. Those Hindus who take up sannyasa in the Advaita Vedanta or Smarta tradition take up one of the ten names associated with this sampradaya.
