Nathdwara is a city in the Rajsamand district of the state of Rajasthan, India. It is located in the Aravalli hills,[2] on the banks of the Banas River and is 48 kilometres north-east of Udaipur.[3] Shrinathji, is a swarup of lord Krishna which resembles his 7-year-old "infant"[4] incarnation of Krishna. The deity was originally worshiped at Jatpura, Mathura[5] and was shifted in the year 1672 from Govardhan hill, near Mathura along holy river Yamuna after being retained at Agra for almost six months. Literally, Nathdwara means 'Gateway to Shrinathji (God)'.[6]
Nathdwara is a significant Vaishnavite shrine pertaining to the Pushti Marg or the Vallabh Sampradaya or the Shuddha Advaita founded by Vallabha Acharya, revered mainly by people of Gujarat and Rajasthan,[7] among others. Vitthal Nathji,[8] son of Vallabhacharya institutionalised the worship of Shrinathji at Nathdwara. Today also the Royal king family of Nathdwara belongs to the lineage of vallabhacharya mahaprabhuji. They are called Tilkayat or tikaet of Nathdwara.[9][better source needed]
