Introduction

Gotras in Hinduism: The term ‘Gotra’ is used in Hindu Tradition. It denotes the lineage to which an individual in the family belong to. It is like a genealogy tree tracing back the origins of the family. Usually, all the Gotras converge at the 7 Rishis, called the Sapta Rishis. They are – Vashista, Kashyapa, Bharadwaja, Jamadagni, Shandilya, Atri and Vishwamitra.

Gotras are associated with male or patrimonial kinship group. This is so because during Hindu marriage, the Gotra of the bride changes to the Gotra of the Bridegroom and the children will bear the Gotra of the father. When the female child belonging to the Gotra of the father again, at the time of marriage, changes to that of her husband’s gotra and the genealogy goes on in this manner.

Origin

The origin of the gotras can be traced back to the Vedic times. References to the gotras are found in the Rig Veda. Gotra means a herd of cows indicating a closely interconnected family tree. It is said that individuals who belong to the same gotra carry, either by nature or through profession, common attributes.

It is a theory that the Brahmins are the immediate relatives of the Sapta Rishis or seven sages. These seven sages came into existence from Brahma, the creator, who gave birth to the seven sages through his yogic abilities. These seven rishis are the gotrakarins from whom the 108 gotras have branched out further. Therefore, there are primarily 7 gotras named after these 7 respective rishis and 101 gotras that have branched out of these 7 primary gotras.

Significance of Gotras in Marriages

The Gotras hold a significant place and plays a crucial part in marriages. It is prohibited in the Hindu tradition to marry a person belonging to the same Gotra. This is so because people belonging to the same gotra are considered as brothers and sisters and one family. Also, it is believed that getting married in the same gotra will result in passing of genetically transmitted diseases and disorders.

However, this thinking is being questioned in the modern context. Love between two individuals happens first and later when the gotra issue comes to light, it becomes difficult for the two individuals to give up their relationship based on the ‘same gotra’ logic.

Gotras, Name and Caste

Many families keep the Gotra name as their surname. But, all the surnames with the name of the gotra need not necessarily imply that an individual is from that gotra. For example, the surname Vashisht. This surname can be used by a person belonging to the Vashista Gotra as well as by someone whose gotra is different, say Atreya Gotra.

It should be remembered that the Gotras are different from the caste. A person of a particular Gotra can be found in many different castes in India. Despite this, the caste and religion also play a crucial role in the social life and marriage of an individual in the Hindu Tradition.

Gotras, Ecology and Environment

It will be interesting to note that these primary gotra names not only signifies the names of the respective rishis but also has a link to plants and animals. For example, Bharadwaj implies a Lark, Kaushik implies a slid from the Kusha, a type of grass. This way, the man remained connected with the nature and contributed to the protection and the conservation of plants and animals. They were very sensitive towards the environment and did not harm the plants or animals.

Gotras and Rituals

Gotras hold an important position not only in Hindu marriages but it is also needed to perform rituals, religious and otherwise. In the Hindu Tradition, when one performs a ritual, it is mandatory to say the Gotra of the individual who performs the ritual or to whom such a ritual is performed.
