In the case of other four Vrindavanas, the Dashavatara figures are well carved. The five Vrindavanas signify the holy presence of five forms of god Vayu and Sri Vadirajaru namely Prana, Apana, Vyana, Udana and Samana. It hints at the fact of equality and parity between the god Vayu and Sri Vadiraja. Infront of Panchavrindavana, the statue of Vedavyasa is found. The pose of statue of Lord Vedavyasa is distinct and peculiar. In both the palms of right and left hands, there are characteristic marks of Chakra and Shankha. Right side, there is the holy Vrindavana of Sri Vedavedyatirtha. Besides that, the stone inscription of Anuvrindavanakhyana is seen. It is the summarised work of Vrindavanakhyana.

Inside there is Pooja mandira, kitchen, corridor etc. There is a well and also a small pond namely Varahatirtha. It is an agreeable spot for special studies and medtiation with tranquillity. Because of this distinctness, Sri Vishwottamatirtha Swamiji used to stay there for more time to persue major Shastric works and undertake deep deliberation.
It is located at Udyavara 4kms away from Udupi. It was also constructed at the time of Vrindavanacharya. The renovation was completed by Vishwottamatirtha. At the back, there flows the river Papanashini. We find the original Vrindavana of Vishwendratirtha. There is a small pond at the entrance.

The unique Mahima of Lord Varaha can be experienced as the shade image is seen as reflected in that pond. In the year 2007, Vishwottamatirtha Swamiji renovated this Matha. This spot is in the area with beauty of nature. This is well known as more powerful spot of supernatural appearance.
It came into being at the time of Sri Vadiraja. It is by the side of Vishnumurthy temple. This temple depicts historical significance. In the past, a pious and devoted bachelor consecrated Naivedya and made the Lord to consume it visibly and completely. Therefore, it is well known as Undaru (Unda uru). Sri Madhva and Sri Vadiraja worshiped Vishnumurthy Lord to his satisfaction. Sri Vrindavanacharya made timely arrangement for daily worship and festivals. Now, it is under the control of Sri Vadirajamatha. Annual car festival takes place on grand scale. At the entrance of Matha, there is a big platform. Inside we find Poojamandira, corridor, rooms, kitchen, well etc. There is a swing having the presence of Bhutarajaru and this swing happens to move invisibly. But, one can see the touching mark on wall as wonder. Nearby, there is small pond namely 'Vishnupushkarani'. Besides, there are two original Vrindavanas of Vishwanidhitirtha and Vish-wadhishwaratirtha seers of Sri Sode Vadirajamatha. Vishwottamatirtha Swamiji did take up the renovation work and completed.

Inside there are small shrine, corri-dor, holy presence of Bhuta-rajaru, rooms, well, kitchen etc. Here also, there are Moola Vrindavanas of Vara-darajatirtharu-I and Vidya-nidhitirtharu. Outside, there is an isolated Vrindavana of Vidyanidhitirtha who used to teach Sri Vadiraja at the beginning.
It is popularly known as birth place of Vadirajatirtha. The place is vast and is graced with nature beauty. In the inner shrine, there are several icons worshipped by the ancestors of Sri Vadiraja. Sri Channakeshava happens to be an adoring deity of that spot. There is small shrine of Bhutarajaru. Around this there are office, rooms, well, kitchen, open hall etc. Right to the main building, there is small pond seen renovated (Huvinakere). The birth spot of Sri Vadiraja is known as Gourigadde. The crop rice produced here,is offered on the day of Aradhana of Sri Vadirajaru at Sode every year. Recently, Vishwotamatirtha Swamiji has installed the statute of Sri Vadiraja here. Nearby, there are distinct spots of marks that recall and recollect the adventurous deeds of Sri Vadiraja's childhood. Sri Vishwottamatirtha seer started a big Goshala with all required facilities. Hundreds of aged cows are given shelter, food etc. and thus protected well.
Originally, it belonged to the parents of Sri Vadiraja's mother. It is in the heart of lovely and elegant spot of nature. Recently, Matha has been renovated. In Poojamandira, there are many icons for worship. Behind this, there is thin stream flowing. The beautiful scene around the Matha, makes everyone getting engrossed in supra-mundane experience.
This Matha is located in the village, Kenchagaru in Honnavara Tq. There is Moola Vrindavana of Vishwesha-tirtha Swamiji and also the presence of Bhutarajaru. Recently, the Matha is renovated. The surrounding place appears to be a good sample of penance groove.
Originally, the Matha was established at the time of Sri Madhvacharya. Daily afternoon Sri Madhva used to worship Vyasamushti saligrama – a precious stone having full Sannidhana of supreme. Then, at the time of Sri Vadiraja, it came under the control and supervision of Sri Vadiraja Matha. Vrindavanacharya of 19th century of this Para-mpara worshipped Lord Vedavyasa to his full satisfaction and then carri-ed the same to Krishna-sannidhi of Udupi. The historical renovation has been done by Vish-wottamatirtharu. Here also there is a swing having holy presence of Bhutarajaru. In the corridor of Pooja mandira, there is small shrine of Hanuman installed by Sri Vadiraja. In front of the Matha, there is a pond known as 'Vyasapushkarani'. Since, it was a chosen field of unique austerity of Vrindavanacharya, there is a small Vrindavana of that great pontiff.
On the bank of Soma (Aghanashini) river, the holy Sannidhana existed up prior to Sri Vadiraja. Till the latter part of last century, construction of Matha was totally in deteriorated state where-as idols of Vedavyasa, Hanuma and Garuda and also Vrindavana of Vedangatirtha were being seen. The Padmapeetha of Bhutarajaru was also present. Vishwo-ttamatirtha Swamiji renovated it in an agreeable manner. It is the peculiar holy centre where Sri Vadiraja like Sri Madhva, used to install one copy of all his works underground.
On the bank of Kotitirtha at Gokarna, branch Matha was built up at the time of Sri Vadiraja. Since it was not in a good condition, Vishwottama-tirthaswamiji renovated it with reasonable comfort. Lodging and boarding facilities are available. It has become a convenient place for post funeral rites and other rituals.
This Matha has become a center for daily rituals and rites.
It is also known as Hayagriva Mandira. Daily rituals, rites and festivals and Aradhanas on special occasions are being organized accordingly.
Though the area of the temple is small, the powerful and vigilant presence of god Hanuman has made it more popular holy center to devotees. The Hanuman idol was installed by Sri Vrinda-vanacharya. Daily worship and other rituals are performed on grand scale with full opulence and prosperity.
Other than these, there might be some other branches. But, they are not under the possession of Sode Vadiraja Matha and hence unnoticed.
