c rya Kakka S ri (VI): He was a very efficient c rya. He made new arrangements for his gaccha. He contemplated that celebrated c ryas like Ratnaprabha and Yak adeva might not exist in the future. So, no c rya should be called as Ratnaprabha or Yak adeva in future, instead they should be called with any one of the three names - Kakka S ri, Devagupta S ri and Siddha S ri.
He also introduced reforms in N gendra and Candra gacchas. During his pontificate, saints of P r van tha lineage merged into Candra gaccha. Followers of crya Udayavardhana believed that as both Lord Pr van tha and Lord Mah v ra were of ascetic tradition and it came to be known as "Dvivandan ka gaccha' and finally merged with Tap gaccha and altogether were called as Tap ratna gaccha. They set up 22 branches of Upake a gaccha namely - Sundara, Prabha, Kanaka, Meru, S ra, Candra, S gara, Hamsa, Tilaka, etc.

In view of his laxity in the performance of the Congregation activities, the Congregation firmly resolved that only a Monk whose parents belong to Jain religion should be appointed as the leader of Congregation, in future.
