Samaga is the surname used by some of the members of Shivalli Madhwa Brahmin community of Udupi and Dakshina Kannada (South Kanara) districts of Karnataka state, India (Bharath).[1] The word Samaga originated because of their proficiency in reciting the difficult Sama "Sama gaayathi yaha, vaha Samaga".[citation needed]
