SHARANU BHAARATHA  I am going tell you that is in the world 1ST Dharma was born that is Sanatana DHARMA this information got fromSanatanaDHARMAS epics books SHIVAPURANA,VISHNUPURANA,BHAKTHAPRAHALADH,RAMAYANA,MAHABHARATH, The Name Sanatana camed by Lord Shiva only in Lord Shiva Mantra had OM SANATANA NAMAHA In SHIVAPURANA in Shiva Purana had written When before creating the world there only Goddess Adishakti was there & she given birth to Lord Brahma & Vishnu, Shiva & Adishakti asked to Lord Brahma & lord Vishnu can you come with me to do create a earth & galaxy but this 2 gods not 1st accepted so Adishakti made again thems stones at last LORD Shiva came & his eyes was in very anger & Adishakti made him calm down & he accepted Goddess Adishakti's words to create Galaxy & Earth & other Srustis but he made conditions you had to give life again to lord brahma & vishnu & this Srusti can make all gods & goddess & I will not wear full dress& not i love luxury life so Goddess Adishakti blessed him boon & Lord Vishnu again came life but he was in sleepy & from his stomach came Lord Brahma & after so many years they got wake up &  Lord Brahma & Vishnu started quarrel that is greatness so Shivalinga came in front of them & said Lord Vishnu go to my end point & see my end point & to Lord Brahma you see my Upside head then they gone to search but can't find it but Lord Brahma taken one Ketaki flower to say simply Lord Brahma saw Lord Shiva's Head or(Adhi) & Vishnu not saw foot of Shiva & they two also came back & Lord Brahma said I saw your head(Adhi), Lord Shiva cursed to Ketaki flower the Ketaki flower not wear my worship idol or Linga that had use means that Ketaki flower of leaf had to cut middle of line mark & can use on me other wise without doing this had keep on me then there house womens call to bitch, & Lord Brahma taken & come Kamadhenu Brahma holding side of Kamadhenu head & Shiva asked really Brahmadeva saw my Adhi then from his head said yes because of Brahma had made like that but Kamadhenu's tail said truth not seen so Lord Shiva given Boon to Kamadhenu all 333 crores of Sanatana Gods & Goddess  in your body & worship & first your do pooja(worship) starts from your tail. Lord Shiva got angry cut Lord Brahma’s 5^th head & that head became to Shiva as Biksha Patra search for fulfill of rice so he asked rice but not fulfillat last Adishakti taken Annapurneshwari Devi and put rice then fulfillit & removed it but Lord Shiva holding hand has when he hold at asking rice & that Biksha Patra coming to again to Shiva’s hand but lord Vishnu help from his Sudarshana Chakra. At last Lord Shiva given boon to Vishnu you had said truth so you became Sri Satya Narayana from this name & this Satya Narayana who worship their fulifillments will success said by Lord Shiva. & Lord Shiva, Vishnu, Brahma, Adishakti created universe & in earth the two people 1st Manu & Shatrupa. & started life cycle of the earth.

In  the Lord Shiva's life story that is when lord SHIVA doing tapas(meditation) not getting then LORD KAMADEVA & his wife RATI came to near SHIVAS house & KAMADEVA & his WIFE danced shouted but lord Shiva not getup from tapas so lord Kamadeva take the arrow & bow & shooted & lord Shiva get uped from tapas & lord Shiva got angry & Kamadeva wife afraid from lord Shivas angry & she seeing from far away & lord Shiva opened his 3rd eye & burnt lord Kamadeva & Kamadevas wife came near lord Shiva & asked the boon give again life & lord Shiva cool down & gave again the life to Kamadeva & when Kamadeva got the life that time his body not seeing so lord Shiva told u r body see means u have to take birth in DWAPARYUGA & u will be son of LORD KRISHNA & RUKHMINI AVATAR of LORD VISHNU why u take birth means u have to kill ASURAS so u have to kill ASURAS the DWAPARYUGA come means 10,00,00000 years u have to wait this incident happen in before Ramayana, Mahabharatha means in Kruthayuga. After Dwaparyuga ends Kaliyuga entered then Brugha Maharshi wanted to meet Trimurtis then He camed to near Lord Brahma but Lord Brahma not responsed Brugha Maharshi so Brugha Maharshi cursed him your idol not to be worship your idol worship with other Gods or Goddess like Trimurti (Lord Shiva, Lord Vishnu, Lord Brahma). & When Brugha Maharshi came to near Lord Shiva he not wake up from Tapas so Brugha Maharshi cursed on Lord Shiva Your idol also not worship your worship only in Linga Shape & your idol worship had to with other Gods & Goddess like Harihara & Ardhanadeshwara or on his Lord Nagadevatha on his neck or on his head Ganga devi should be there so the Sanatana Dharma & Shivasharanas not keep name lingamurthy only keep Shivamurthy, Shivalinga, Shivalingappa this type held & at last, Then in order to test Lord Vishnu, Maharishi reached Vaikunth Dhama. He entered the Dhama without Lord Vishnu's permission and saw that the Lord was resting at that time. Maharishi asked him to wake up, but Lord was in deep sleep. On seeing no reaction from Lord, Maharishi hit Lord Vishnu on his chest. That strike by Maharishi Bhrigu left a foot print on Lord's chest and that foot print is known as "Shri Vatsa". Lord Vishnu got up after the strike and realized what had happened. On realizing that Maharishi had hit him with his foot, Lord asked him, “Maharishi, are you hurt in your foot? My chest is strong but your foot is not so strong". Seeing the decorum of Lord Vishnu, Bhrigu was pleased and declared him superior amongst the Trideva.

According to Hindu theology, goddess of prosperity and wife of Lord Vishnu, Maha Laxmi also witnessed the whole incident, as she was also present in the Dharma at that time. She could not tolerate disrespect displayed by Maharishi Bhrigu towards Lord Vishnu and cursed him that henceforth she would never visit Brahmins and they will all live in absence of wealth. On hearing this curse from Maha Laxmi, Maharishi told her about the true nature of his visit. Maha Laxmi then told Maharishi, that her curse would still haunt Brahmins but whenever any Brahmin would worship Lord Vishnu, he would be liberated from the curse.

When the sages heard Bhrighu’s report, they retorted, "Who was he to test the trimurtis? How could he disturb their privacy? More so, how could he even dare to curse the deities who, by their mercy, had bestowed upon him many favors and made him so illustrious? Even when he had been unimaginably haughty, the Gods had displayed forbearance and kindness when they could have burnt him to ashes by a mere glance."

Only then Bhrighu realized that the best of merits was to remain free of vain pride and conceit. He begged pardons from the Gods who were glad to bless him, seeing that he had realized his folly. Since then the trimurtis have been the supreme owners of the purnahuti and the devotees could offer the aahuti to the God of their choice and devotion.

In the VISHNUPURANA story LORD VISHNU told to SAPTARUSHIS (7 RUSHIS) THE KRUTAYUGA came to an end THAT how will end means from MAHAPRALAYA all will destroy that is people, animals ,trees but U SAPTARUSHIS(SanatanaDHARMAS) will not die because u have to help MOTHER EARTH, MOTHER NATURE, & DID U UNDERSTAND VISHNU told to SAPTARUSHIS that is whole world people & animals will die only SAPTARUSHIS(SanatanaDHARMA SAPTARUSHIS) will not die means that time whole DHARMA will die & onlySanatanaDHARMAS SAPTARUSHIS there that time.

BHAKTAPRAHALADH

In Bhaktaprahaladh Story told that Prahaladhs Uncle gone To Heaven To Fight(Battle) With Gods & Devendra When Battle Started Hiranyaksha in mind came doubt that is Lord Vishnu not came to battle & he ask to Nardamuni what we have to do LORDVISHNU to come to battle so NARDAMUNI TOLD U have to give the torcher to Mother Earth & then will Lord Vishnu taken avatar VARAHA in lord BRAHMA & lord Varaha came to battle & fight with U HIRANYAKSHA TAKEN MOTHER EARTH put in PATALAS SAMUDRA (SEA) & then in world again came PRALAYA(SUNAMI) in Hindu Mahasagara, GANDHARA, pakistan, & in foreign countries also happen pralaya (tsunami) but in other Dharma books this EVENT not mentioned so they not 1st born in the world after keeping Mother Earth Lord Vishnu Taken Varaha Avatar & 1st Help to mother earth & kept where MOTHER EARTH lived & after kill the HIRANYAKSHA & again LORDVISHNU CAME TO TELL TO MOTHER EARTH that is U will give born in DWAPARYUGA One SON that is U R SON name called NARKASURA I will kill U R SON because He has taken SHAPA(CURSE) from RUSHIMUNI SO I WILL TAKE AVATAR OF LORDKRISHNA & u know that the Lord Bhoo Varaha Swami between tusks had carried the earth that is round shape then we can understand the Sanatana Dharma people already know that earth was round. You all can see in some Sanatana Dharma Mandirs had Varaha swamy holding mother earth in his between tusk & that is round in shape & that temples built in ancient days before coming foreign invaders.  Then this will give an brief account BHAARATHA  was forward in all fields.

KANAADHA (PÀuÁzÀ)

BHAARATHA contribution to field of science has been very great. Unfortunately, most of us do not know any thing about this. Now it is an atomic age. Kaanadha the BHAARATHAs saint, scholar & scientist lived during period 100 B.P & 100 A.P who discovered 1^st time Atom. He was the son of a great sage Kashyapa. He lived in the city of Prabhasa. He was the disciple (student) of Somakarma. Modern Science uses the ideas for the material benefit of man. Similar attempts were also made by BHAARATHAs scholars in ancient times. Kanaadha is the author of many Vaisheshika Darshana Shastras. This Shastras deals with Pancha Bhutas (5 elements) (1)Prithvi, (2) Aap, (3)Teja (4) Vayu (5) Akasha. These elements possess many important qualities. It is said that all physical quantities are made up of the combination of several of these qualities of the 5 elements. Kanaadha also defines anu(atom) as the smallest particle of a matter. Various characteristics have been explained in the Vaisheshika Sutras written by Kanaadha. He is recognized as the earliest of mankind..& Speaker & Bomb this 2 discovered in ChandraGupta period & TV, MOBILE, WIRE LESS PHONE & WIRE had PHONE discovered in MAHABHAARATHA period & the ROCKET ‘s this information & discovered in BHARDWAJS SAGE BOOK WRITTEN & THAT TIME ONLY DISCOVERED ROCKET & satellites also have in Bharadwaj sage book.

ARYABHATTA, the famous astronomer wrote two famous books “Surya Siddhantha” & ‘Aryabhatiya’. He was the 1st to describe in detail the movements of Planets & Occurrence of eclipses. His best work is. “Brihatsamhita” an Encyclopaedia of science. another scholar in medicine Vagbhata wrote “Astangasangraha” a great work on medicine. they must have made great progress in Chemistry & Metallurgy. The iron pillar* in the Mehrauli village near delhi stands as a witness to the advance made metallurgy. It is about 25 feet & 8 inches tall. although the iron pillar stands exposed to sun & wind for over 1500 years it has not shown any signsof rust of corrosion.Ancient BHAARATHA physicans richly contributed to medical sciences. the beginnings can be found in Atharvanavedha. Dhanvanthri of Gupta period was regarded as father of BHAARATHA medical science (AyurVedha Pithamaha). He wrote Ayurvedha Nighantu which means the dictionary of longlife. It deals with diseases & herbal medicines. though the original book of 6th century is missing a copy of Ayurvedha Nighantu made in the 7th century has been discovered. There are references to medical & surgical systems of Charaka & Susruta Samhitas. Nearly 127 types of surgical instruments have mentioned. Charaka was regarded an Avathara of serpent God. According to CharakaSmahitha human diseases were divided into three categories namely Tridoshas called vatha, pitta, kafa,(gas, bile, phlem). The remedies for 3 types of diseases were given in detail.

Bose was born in Kolkata, India on January 1, 1894 as the eldest and only male child of his family. His mother had no formal education, but ensured that her children never lacked the same. Bose, always having been an intelligent student, was encouraged in the pursuit of studies by his mother.  & telescope 1st discovered in Karnataka in Halebidu VastuShilpa there one statue there holding telescope & seeing sky. Bullet proof invented in MAHABHARATHA TIME ONLY KARNA used KAVACHA & KUNDALI it help from all powerful arrows which cannot harm & time The time machine also invented in Tretayuga the Lord Shiva’s first wife Sati wanted to test Lord Rama he can recognize or not me so he gone & sit where Lord Shiva sit & she travelled to Kruthayuga to Tretayuga & she taken test of Lord Rama & Lord Rama he know she is wife of Lord Shiva "Once, lord Shiva accompanies by Sati, arrived at Dandak aranya, where Sri Rama was wandering in search of Sita, who had been abducted by Ravana. After walking for some time Lord Shiva saw Sri Rama and Lakshman. Lord Shiva made salutations to Sri Rama. Sati was surprised at Shiva's behaviours. She asked lord Shiva about the reason he made salutations to Sri Rama. Shiva told Sati that he (Sri Rama) was his deity and an incarnation of lord Vishnu. But Sati was not satisfied by this reply. She wanted to test, whether Sri Rama was really an incarnation of lord Vishnu or not. She disguised herself as Sita and went to Sri Rama. But Sri Rama recognised her real identity and addressed her as Mother. Sati was ashamed but asked Sri Rama as to why did Shiva made salutations to her."

Sri Rama narrated the following story- Once, lord Shiva requested Vishwakarma to construct a grand palace and a magnificent throne for him. When everything was ready, Shiva invited all the deities for the crowning ceremony of lord Vishnu. Lord Vishnu was requested to be seated on the throne and was worshipped by all the deities including Shiva himself. He assured lord Vishnu that all of his (Vishnu's) incarnations would be shown respected by his (Shiva's) devotees. Rama was the incarnation of Vishnu." Sati was now completely satisfied. She was also ashamed of herself that she had doubted Shiva's words. She went to lord Shiva. Lord Shiva stopped looking at Sati, as her consort, because she had personified herself as mother Sita. This fact was even corroborated by a heavenly voice. Now Sati's heart was filled up with sorrows. She followed disenchanted Shiva to the Kailash mountain, where he commenced his meditation and went into Samadhi. She sat down without saying a word. When lord Shiva came out from his Samadhi, he saw her stire sitting their. He felt pity on her and drove away her guilt and sorrows, by giving discourses. the Maya he was also after came to earth from heaven already 300 years passed that means BHAARATHA is the 1st invention to discover of time machine. when mob or any criminals arrest police they use sometimes, bomb like from that bomb only leave air & that people sleep this type already invented in MAHABHARATHA STORY(DWAPARAYUGA) when Arjun fighting with Kauravas after 12years Vanavasa & 1year Agnyathavasa Arjun leaved Samohana Ashtra from that arrow air leaved & that air taken Kauravas slept in chariot.

Harihar also spelled Hari-hara, in Hinduism, is a syncretic deity, combining the two major gods, Vishnu (Hari) and Siva (Hara). Images of Harihara (also known as Sambhu-Visnu and Sankara-Narayana, variants of the names of the two gods) began to appear in the classical period after sectarian movements, which elevated one god as supreme over the others, had waned sufficiently for efforts at compromise to be attempted. The region of Harihar had been under the control of the Hoysalas from the 11th to 13th centuries AD. Harihar is famous for a Harihareshwara temple, which is also known as "Dakshina Kashi".

Harihara is situated on the banks of the Tungabhadra River, 275 kilometres north of Bangalore. The neighboring city Davangere is 14 km; Harihar is connected by road and railway, and is located on national Highway 4 (Puna – Bangalore). It has a very pleasant climate through the year. Both Harihar and Davangere cities are referred as twin cities like Hubli and Dharwad.

History

There is famous temple built in the 12th century during Hoysala's time called Harihareshwara temple (Guharanya Kshetra), from which the city derives its name, which is also known as "Dakshina Kashi".

The god Harihareshwara is a combination of god Shiva and Vishnu. There is a story behind avatara of this god. In ancient days this place was known as 'Guharanya'. A dense jungle and habitat of a demon Guhasura. He had a boon that no human or Rakshasa or god can kill him. And he started harassing people around this place. Then Vishnu and Shiva came together in a new avatara called Hari – Hara (Harihara) and killed demon Guhasura. That is how this place has got the name Harihar. Every year the Car festival is celebrated. Harihar also has a famous Ragavendra Mutt located on the banks of Tungabandra.

The harihar serves as a major industrial base also. It is served by the Kirloskar industry and at present Aditya Birla Group's Grasim Industries, Synthite, Shamanur Sugar's and more. Kirloskar Engineering company has closed down, resulting in a loss of nearly 15,000 jobs. As Harihar is geographically located in the center of Karnataka, it was proposed to be made the capital of the state. However, Bangalore was chosen as the capital. The major lifeline of this small town is the Tungabhadra river, which continues to be exploited and polluted as a result of heavy industrialization.

The image of the deity is a fusion of the right vertical half of Shiva and left vertical half of Vishnu.^[2] The image holds in its right hand, the attributes of Shiva and in the left hand, those of Vishnu.

Legend

According to a Hindu legend, a demon named Guha (or Guhasura) once lived in these parts and a considerable surrounding region, from Uchchangi Durga in the east, Govinahalu in the south, Mudanur in the west and Airani in the north was under his control. Guha successfully appeased Hindu god Brahma with his penance and obtained a boon, by virtue of which, it would be impossible for either Hari (Vishnu) or Hara (Shiva) to singly kill him. Guha then became a regular tormentor of gods and humans alike. In order to overcome Brahma's boon and eliminate Guha, Vishnu and Shiva together took the form of Harihara (a fusion), came down to earth and killed the demon. The descent of the incarnation on earth is said to be at nearby Kudalur, at the confluence of the rivers Tungabhadra and Haridra.

Temple plan:

Ornate lintel and door jamb relief at entrance to inner mantapa in the Harihareshwara temple at Harihar

Lathe turned pillars support the bay ceiling of the closed hall leading to the sanctum

The temple is constructed in a staggered square mantapa (hall) plan, typical of Hoysala constructions. Therefore, the outer wall of the mantapa shows many projections and recesses. The wall of the mantapa is a parapet wall resting on which are half pillars that support the outer ends of the roof (cornice). The ceiling of the open mantapa is adorned with artistic decoration such as lotuses. The ceiling is supported by lathe turned full pillars. The material used for the temple is soapstone (also called potstone). The original tower over the shrine (Vimana) is missing and has been replaced in modern times with one of brick and mortar. Preserved within the temple premises are several old-Kannada inscriptions and hero stones.

The Temple

Harihareshwara Temple has a large symmetrical hall with beautiful lathe and glossy stone pillars supporting the roof, which has superb projections and recesses, and carvings of flowers like lotus and lily, enhancing the beauty of the temple. The temple has been constructed with soapstone, a typical feature of Hoysala architecture. There is a tiny image of Goddess Lakshmi in the lintel of the doorway – proof of the architectural skill and craftsmanship of the Hoysala artistes. In the south wall of the temple, you can see idols of Lord Shiva and Lord Ganesh carved. The southern side of the temple has a Vamana avatar with his foot raised above the ground to measure the world.

Harihareshwara temple – Architecture

The architecture in the Harihareshwara temple resembles that normally used by the Hoysala dynasty. The mantapa or hall as it is called is square in shape. The pillars and the ceiling have exclusive architecture and decoration like lotuses. The Hoysalas used soapstone for building the temple. There is a lot of repair work which is being carried out here and the Vimana is being replaced with mortar and brick ceilings. The temple houses contemporary Kannada inscriptions and you will find them quite interesting.

The temple's construction is based on the Hoysala, which is in a staggered square manadpa.  The outer wall of the mandapa shows many projections and recesses. The wall of the mandapa is a parapet wall,  resting on which are half pillars that support the outer ends of the roof (cornice).  The ceiling of the open mandapa is adorned with artistic decoration such as lotuses. The ceiling is supported by lathe turned full pillars. The material used for the temple is soapstone (a type of metamorphic rock, largely composed of the mineral talc and rich in magnesium).  The original tower over the shrine (Vimana) is missing and has been replaced in modern times with one of brick and mortar.  Preserved within the temple premises are several old-Kannada inscriptions and hero stones. (Hero stone is a memorial commemorating the honorable death of a hero in battle).

Harihareshwara temple construction:

This temple had beautiful 64 pillars, one & another pillars represents there special some people will say this pillars are made by the famous Jakanachari architecture, here is the special thing that is in the Rathasapthami day the Sun will change his direction that sun rays will fall on direct Harihareshwara swamy idol, when this type will held then this temple built from also with architecture scientific, in this temple Jagali is in under the land , on the wall line wise Pattike is there but in 2 Pattike had had Gods & Goddess paintings & Ducks architecture also is there. On the Pattike had small towers, in this towers down Lord Ganesha, Goddess Gayatri etc. idols are there.

On the temple Vimana (Towers) bricks & built from Gaare (big stones). Five Tala had on the Vimana in the towers & on the tower Kalasha (urnful) had kept. In the south side face Mantapa is in round coils architect of coils is there. On the stone Jagali upside 9 padmas is there, front side of the Mantapa on the wall Latha Pattike(border designs), Gods & Goddess, Elephant, Horses, architect in lines. Small pillars middle had idols, lions, Katamjana dancers, flowers, Pattike, on the roof 4 feet Munchachidu  upside Kaipidiya lions, elephant faces is architected, northside Hoysala architect door had in Kalabyrava temple is there, in the Mukkamantapa inside had 60 pillars. This pillars when we see this pillars oldest than 12^th century. Tala is more than sharp arcade in this style is there. May be this built in 15th century after Palegaras reconstructed this temple. In the Mahadwara 5 storey (buildings)  is there but now cannot see this tower or Gopura.

In the Garbhagudi outside wall 3 sides But this temple is not now as in olden days, 20 feet deep it was situated in two rivers join together place. Haridra & Tungabhadra River this joining called in Kannada Sangama & this place called Kodaluru. For Sangama of 2 rivers is also called in olden days to Harihareshwara Sangameshwara in this place also people was coming for learn the Vedaparayana, Vedashastra, so it is also called Dakshina Kashi. For this only changed in 1200 A.D. but this 1200 A.D. Kalyana Chalukya dynasty ended. But this period on the Tungabhadra north  side Sevannuru & in south Hoysala came into existence to power. This 2 kingdoms their kingdoms expand river outside places in the History.

This 2 kingdoms Vyshnava peoples here not develop the Harihareshwara temple but this god was called Yogeshwara had decreased & start to called Shankaranarayana know from the inscriptions, in the year 1180 A.D Harish came to called later called Harihareshwara. For this time Kalachuri family 2^nd Bijjala’s father Permadiya this place had to build the temple Permadiya  was ready, Lord Harihareshwara swamy came Permadiya dream & said you had to build a temple for me & to sake of people we can see in H.M. Shankaranarayana books Sri Hariharadevalaya page number 62.) The Permudiya said to I will built this temple & also inscription (A.K.Vol-XI-D-D.25, H.H.S- 64) had mentioned.

Hoysala kingdom in the court a famous poet & also in the Vijayanagara kingdom that poet name called Hampi Harihara poet, he was coming for Dwarasamudra to Hampi but he was in the middle of the road he visited Kodaluru (Harihara), & stay for the in the Harihareshwara temple demon was giving torcher to people that demon was called Brahmarakshasa, the Harihara place name came from in the 1200 a.d. to 1220  from the reference of the Dr. M. Chidanandmurthy Hariharadevaha poet verse, heritage, Sitaramaya V.S.M., I.B.H. Prakashana, Bengaluru, 1974, here period, nation present situation & literature works, N. Basavaradhya article, p.g. no 18-19) had opinion. Siddanajeshana Raghavanka story explaining the Harihara poet came to Kodaluru (Harihara) the Harihareshwara temple was not destroyed & any damaged it was clear & calm, but in this temple demon was also situated that is Brahmarakshasa by the opinion of the H.M. Shankarnarayanrao (his book Sri Harihara Devalaya p.g. no 46).

This above facts review Harihara poet when he going to Hampi in that time when he visited to Kodaluru here only he was stayed & taken shelter we can know easily. Harihara poet was also expert in eradicating & enables the demons & devils, God blessing to him so he can able to remove the demons & devils, as well as Hoysala love & respect given him in court. When Harihara poet came to Kodaluru the Harihareshwara swamy called Shankaradeva, Yogeshwara, Sangameshwara. But this names became problem for the two community but it solved by the Harihara peot he kept the name for God Shankarnarayan this will in future became equality to the people in Kodaluru.

Here another doubt will arise. That is 1220 year here Hampi Harihara poet came & solved the problem but Harihara poet came to Kodaluru for solving the problem after he not went to Hampi & stayed here until his death? But another story says Harihara poet stayed after 3 years Hoysala Kings taken permission Polalva built the temple in the name of the Harihara poet. That time famous name Shankarnarayan can built this name only but he built temple in poet Harihara name, but the Hoysala important for love, respect by Harihara poet so Polalva built this temple Harihara. In this destination only Yadava king Ramachandra commander Saluva Timmakka (A.K. Vol- XI – D.S.-62, H.H.S-96) Harihara temple beside King uncle Mahadevaraya for the memorial 1277-81 a.d. build the temple in Lakshminarayana temple built this type only 1533 a.d. Vijayanagara Achyuthraya administration period Chandrashekar Chakravarthy near Harihareshwara temple north side his father in law Demarasayya for the memory he built the temple, in this Demeshwara god had made. Harihara poet Hariharadeva had told. This all information when we read doubt will be there Polalva a great poet Harihara poet for the memorial he built the temple called Harihareshwara temple.

Harihara poet Hariharadeva name had said. This all above point when we see Polalva also for the memory had built in the name of Harihara poet his name kept Harihareshwara temple.

Here art & architecture, review according to the inscriptions this temple different parts & period had built came to know. Harihar poet when he visited after 1223-24 (A.K. Vol-XI-D.S-24, H.H.S-64), in the ancient book & new book also said Swabanu Samvathsara Maghashudha Ekadashi Thursday Hoysala Immadi Narasimha his prime minister & commander Polalvadandanath now present Harihareshwara temple rebuilt. This temple any parts not damaged today also it is safe & beautiful art & architecture attraction place became for tourist spot. In 1180 inscription, 1223-24 inscription this temple not get more information. But this temple built by Polalva from 115 golds (urnful) Kalasha had decorated this type he made, shows his devotion on god & his greatness on Religion, culture. This temple permanently upto sun & moon had to remain in this place so Polalva he appointed the 104 Brahmins, their religion follows, studies, teaching had to run daily so he made Dwaravathi equals stand Guharanya 4 doors village Bhanuvalli, Eleval, Jigali, Helehaalu are the 4 doors, & in Bhanuvalli also he built the Lakshminarayana Temple.

This temple art & architecture glory beautiful to explain by the poet he had given many contributions to this temple from his poetry. But in 1223 a.d before Kalachuri Bijjala II his father  Permadiya he also built the Harihareshwara temple, but the Polalva built Harihareshwara temple when it was damaged Polalva rebuild the Harihareshwara temple. In the 1269 a.d Hoysala Chakravarti Naarasimha commander Somanatha Somanthapuras temple built, after this Harihareshwara temple east side door had 5 gold kalasa is there 5 legateships tower also built by Somanatha poet.  In 1277-1281 a.d. Devagiri Yadava Chakravathi Ramachandran commander Saluva Tikkama his uncle Mahadevaraya in his uncle name built the Harihareshwara temple beside Lakshminarayana temple built. This temple construction started & ended the years is 1277 a.d construction was said & construction ended 1279 a.d after this ‘Mahadevaraya Lakshminarayana’ temple established for the permanent good works he purchase the land & given gifted to other people. Now Lakshminarayana temple is not there now Lakshmi Devi temple is there and also Mahishasura Mardini idol also we can see. In the olden days for the city development & development of god & goddess worship of doing pooja also put the taxes & also put the tax on daily using items had written in inscriptions in 1479 (1519 according to Rice) Ramachandra Badami Prabhuvarman Soubhagyavathi Tulajabai for her sake of family built the Deepastambha. 1533 a.d. Avasarada Chandrashekaraya Achuthraya taken permission for his father in law Demarasya for the Commemorative temple had built that god is Demeshwara god, rice & offerings had land gifted to 60 Brahmins.

This Harihareshwara temple for the development so many kings, ministers, commanders given gifts, art & architecture, paintings, design, this effort only had Harihareshwara temple was saved so all people now also can see. In 1254 Choudawe Hegade their god Nandadevi to serve given so many contributions that is money & architecture, & in 1255 a.d. Annamma Hegade her daughter Siriyava had built marriage ceremony.

Sri Veera Prathapdevaraya Haridra river build the bridge for the people help, which are the use irrigation lands the 2 parts of land given to Harihareshwara temple & Harihareshwara gods & one part given to poor people to make agriculture & given job opportunities, for the people 108 types of jobs given & that one job given to serve the Lord Harihareshwara temple. In 1530 Sri Veeraprathapa Achuthraya period gold repository Timmarasa son Narayanadeva Sri Harihara in the name of Achyutharayapura Bullapura had given. In the kings period priests 1531 a.d Belludi & Ganganarsi village gifted to Harihara god. In 1538 Achyuthmallapanna  Kundawada Achyuthrayendra Mallapura had kept name. in the inn charity given. & in 1555 Sri Veera Prathapa Sadashivaraya period Maninagapura Krishna Nayaka given food facilities for the people. For the food facilities he given Belludi given gift for the people. In 1561 Velluru Kalapanayaka son Margasahaya Nayaka Harihara gods wife’s Lakshmi Devi & Parvathi Devi  for the Rathotsava he given Ganganarsi village given land.

Garbhagudi outside 3 division is there and also it decorated, in this 2 sides many jointed decoration had destroyed. On the wall slopes in this had 2 parts S shape metals is there, Garbhagudi upside tower front had Sala killing the tiger sculptor is there. In the different idol thin green Agnishile (fire sculptor) idol is there. More than 6 feet this idol when was kept we cannot say, but this can imagine Kalyana Chalukya belongs according to Shankarnarayan Rao (Harihara temple p.g. no 135). Sukanasi front is Navaranga, here black stone had decorated from coils it has very shining Ghantakruthi 4 pillars it is very beautiful attraction to see, in this pillars down square upside had 11 circle  is there. in this pillars middle flat  Bhuvaneshwari Devi is there, around Ashtadikapalaka idols and also elephant, ram, bull, horse, crocodile, deer, human, & taurus designed painting is there. This Navaranga all Column ceiling flat, in this middle Lotus bud is architect.

This Navaranga north & South side had doors is there, south side front had porch also had, this two besides had Kakshasana is there. north had also this type only Kaisale was there but now it had been closed. This Uttara door pillars 13^th century inscription is there. this north tip  Kalabyrava temple is there this entrance door upside had Kokkanur Nagayanayaka son Gopayanayaka given bronze swag inscription had. In the Navaranga had 3 doors art & architecture explained beautifully by the Shankarnarayan explained in the book Harihara Devalaya p.g. no 140). One Kaisale this Mukamantapa Navaranga had joined. This Kaisale 2 sides to enter small entrance doors are there. Here in the 68 pillars coils decoration was fully decorated & it is very attraction, this peeta upside had Choukakara. This Mantapa around Kakshasana it look as a Rangamantapa here all sides are beautifully & decorated from the coils & art & architecture galleries, paintings. This east side Gopura 1269 Somadanda had build from the golden Kalashas. But now this tower not had, this temple besides had built so many houses from this one problem arise because the temple beautiful attraction is not see as in olden days as mentioned in books.

In the east side Mahadwara inside had 2 Deepastamba are there, stone deck had stand this for the lighting from the ancient lamps for the burn the lamps they constructed the line wise lamps is there & in Karthikotsava, Deepotsava etc for the functions & fairs & festivals this will lamps used, in 1519 according to the inscription Tulajabhai had put this Deepastambha in Pramadi Samavatsara Margashira 4 Fridays had left to put this. This Deepastambha left side had Lakshminarayana temple but this is very small temple, this temple size is less size another one is that is Mukamantappa, square Kochu design in this around Kakshasana is there. in this Garbhagudi today Lakshminarayana idol is not there insteadMahishasuramardini idol now is there & also we can see now also. In the Harihareshwara temple right side Goddess Parvathi temple was there but today not can see also fossils or proofs.

This artistic mass architect Harihareshwara temple Hoysala contribution is there. This temple Mukamantapa & Polalva build Mukamantapa art Shankarnarayanrao saw the what had difference, the Uchraya unit skill compare already became dull, before this period craftsmanship or pulp decoration architect, that olden days pillars special shining here we can see. Here according to inscriptions we say after coming the Vijayanagara kings temples not developed or reconstruct this temple. But this Vijayanagara Empire after Peshwas period only had developed. Anyhow this Harihareshwara temple fell & uplift had see but this temple not lost beautiful art & architecture & this is holy place had saved.

Here Tunghabdra river Harihara Sangama (together) place called Markandeya Brahmatheertha, Gala, Barghava, Vahni, Chakra, Runavimochana, Naarasimha, Papanashana, Pichahvimochana, Ashwathvrukshachaya & Rudrapada had 11 names had theertha in Davanagere inscriptions Markandeyatheertha (D.S-47, H.H.S-62, in 1180 a.d) & Brahmatheertha,(D.S-84, H.H.S-06, 1161 a.d) & D.S.-85, H.H.S-5 1143 a.d) only had reference. This theerthas reference not had particular evidence but had belief. But also this place became holy place for Sanatana (Hindu) religion people. This type holy place 1686-1755 had great Dasars called Gopaldasa came to Harihara for see the Harihareshwara god & Harihareshwara temple his Suladiyali chanted this written in Davanagere book “Idu Nama Jile” p.g.no 405.                                                         

Here ancient famous for Harihareshwara temple inscriptions Chalukya King Someshwara son Immadi Jagadekamalla Saamantha Veerapandya period (1149 A.D) in this mentioned Guttur place has Guttiooru, in this temple another inscription says Vijayanagara Sri Veeraprathapadevarayana period (1410 A.D) there had mention Guttur, & in Honnali taluk Belaguti inscription see the word Guttenhalli (may be Gutteyahalli) this only came the name for Guttur.

This Harihara city and Harihareshwara God not get particular Epic story, but we can know only from inscriptions the old name Harihara is Kodaluru, and Shankara Narayana this we can know from Monuments. Later on this came to be called Harihara, this city is holy place to Sanatana (Hindu) Dhamra people this is pure holy place than Kashi, the Lord Harihareshwara himself taken Avatar and became Idol in Harihara place. To save moral values in Kaliyuga,

This Harihareshwara Epic story we can read in Skandapuranas Kashikanda, Agastya Maharushi his wife Lopamudra saying the Epic story of Lord Harihareshwara, Once upon a time Sri Markandeya Maharshi Sage asked to Sanatkumar. Once in a time Markandeya Maharshi went to Lord Brahma sons of Sanaka, Sanadana, Sanatkumar, Sansujath, but he went to 3^rd son of Sanatkumar. and Markandeya Maharshi pray with kind heart and worshipped him and later on stand infront of him.

Markandeya Maharshi said I want to know about Lord Harihareshwara in Bharatha Kanda Shri Harihareshwara stayed himself. His worship from All Sanatana 333 Crores Gods and Goddess, Yakshas, Gandharwa, Kinkaras, Rushis(Saints), Apasaras(Angels), Kings also worshipped, then I want to hear the Lord Harihareshwara Epic Story. Then Sanatkumara said Son Markandeya listen, Sri Harihara God stayed and his surrounding growth Dandakaranya, Trees and Shrubs, Flowers. Are growned here.

In this place near Tungabhadra River. One Sage is stayed he was Saint Son called Guha and had own Ashrama he lived alone. and also he was Brahmin son, but in his cruel mind, Demons body, strongest, intelligent was Guha. Guha was torched to people at last he only become King of this Dandakarnya and his ambition was whole world control under him so he made meditation of Lord Brahma and he made meditation very hard and so many years. Guha lived food and water and started to meditation for one year and 2^nd year digestion only made but not from water or food ,  3^rd year Only he lived from Air and all lived this type doing and stand in one leg position started to meditate.,  Lord Brahma came and said open your eyes what you wish I grant to you, then Guhasura asked boon no one harm to me from Gods & Goddess, Demons, Animals, Yakshas, Gandharwa, Kinkara or  others not kill to me & not from Hari or Hara also not kill me then Lord Brahma blessed his boon.

Guhasura started battle in Bharatha Kanda & Victory of all Bharatha Kanda Kings, & Rushimunis(sages) make Homahavana that had stopped from Guhasura & he made trouble to Saints, Children’s, & also to women’s he killed children’s, sages, women’s, From this also not fulfill to Guhasura, so he attacked also to Heaven where Lord Devendra lived in Amaravati called name to his heaven. Then Lord Devendra run with all his sages & others also ran to near Lord Vishnu & Shiva to ask, kill the Guhasura, then Lord Hari & Lord Hara joined together became Hari & Hara half part Lord Vishnu & other half part Lord Shiva.  

The god Harihareshwara is a combination of god Shiva and Vishnu. There is an interesting story behind avatara of this god. In ancient days this place was known as 'Guharanya'. A dense jungle and habitat of a demon Guhasura. He had a boon that no Human or Rakshasa or God can kill him. And he started harassing people around this place. Then Vishnu and Shiva came together in a new avatara called Hari – Hara (Harihara) and started war with Guhasura near R. Tungabhadra Banks and to see this war all 333 Crores Sanatana(Hindu) Gods and Goddess, Yakshas, Gandharwa, Kinnara’s, Rushis(Saints) they seeing from side of the banks of the R. Tungabhadra and God Harihareshwara Teach the lesson to demon Guhasura. But this war held 10.000 years between Harihareshwara and Guhasura and that is how this place has got the name Harihar. Every year the Car festival is celebrated with great enthusiasm and lots of people participating. The Lord Harihara had  situated own in this place like when in Brigha Maharshi kicked on Lord Vishnu Chest then Lakshmi Devi when this happen she was insulted from this incident and Goddess Lakshmi Devi Situated in Kolahpur as VarMahalaxmi Devi  Vykunta not present of Goddess Lakshmi Devi So Lord Vishnu situated in Tirupati Balaji Swamy. So Lord Vishnu and Lord Shiva together and join in one and became Harihara Gods and to kill Demon Guhasura. But Lord Harihareshwara not killed Guhasura because at last Guhasura lost in battle and asked please to me, then Lord Harihareshwara shown mercy and Guhasura asked boon to Harihareshwara this place is  I am meditated place and this place surrounding forest and Villages had to famous from Guharanya, and  my name had to permanent in world until world ends and you have to stay in this Guhakshetra and bless to all your follower people, and on your legs under I have to live there that you have to grant to me Guhasura asked, then Lord Harihareshwara said Thatastu(Granted your blessing). Then Lord Harihareshwara kept his legs on Guhasura’s chest and he not hold the weight of Lord Harihareshwara and Guhasura sent to Patala because this only Lord Harihareshwara foot we cannot see. So this place came to be called Guharanya Kshetra. and All  Sanatana Dharma Gods and Goddess, Kinaras, Gandharwas, Yakshas put the flowers on Harihareshwara and Lord Harihareshwara stayed here in this Guharanya Kshetra Place. (this one paragraph information collected by me Shashi Kumar J Amati) & other by books given below).

The Harihareshwara Idol on right side Lord Shiva face and Trishula and blessing hand, and Lord Hara’s hairs and on that hairs Goddess Ganga Devi and Lord Chandra is there and Left Side Harihareshwara Idol is Lord Vishnu holding the Shanka, Sudarshana Chakra,  and crown also is there.

Harihar also has a famous Raghavendra Mutt located on the banks of Tungabandra. The Brindavana of sri Raghavendra Swamy is very pleasant to watch getting famous by time for its locality, the functions like hastodaka, aradana, etc. It also serves punya kaarya (events) like pitru kaarya, darmodaka, varshantaka etc. It is featured with all the activities and good place spend time.

History of Harihara:

Above we said about only epic story of Harihara but also it connects to History also we can get the sources from around the Harihareshwara Temple rock articles. Old Mysore Government Gazetteer History Researcher Organization they searched about Harihara, and then got all information about Harihara.

Epigraphis is Karnataka Vol.6^th Inscriptions in the Chitradurga District (Published by and for the Government of Mysore) B.Lewis Rice ei. E M R A S D P I in Mysore and Coorg. Fellow of the University if Madras and the Director of Archaeological Researches in Mysore.

The Historian & Researcher B. Lewis the Rock Inscriptions proof had taken. This below topics in 1903 A.D. From Mysore Government Central Press it published.

In Harihar History we will get Harihar is the old name is Kodaluru. Haridra Halla join in Tungabhdra River so this two joining Place is called Kodaluru. But this Kodaluru Village at that time. The Lord Harihareshwara had joined & stand here only in this place.

In ancient days for Lord Harihareshwara called Shankaranarayana, this we can get in Inscriptions outside of the Temple. This Harihareshwara temple was very small but this temple again rebuilt in 1145 that we can get in Inscription of 25^th number  (1224 a.d.) We can see.  In 1224 year Inscription of 25.4 Stone says about Kodaluru by Hoysala Dynasty Adi Vishnuvardhana  said  “Kodaluru is very Beautiful place here Lord Harihara taken Avatar & save us” had said by the King Adi Vishnuvardhana.

Hoysala King Adi Vishnuvardhana & his wife was Maharani Lakshmidevi & there son was born & named him Bhoovalabhanarasimha. & Bhoovalabhanarasimha his son was Ballala Raja. He was very courageous, bravery, Intelligent & he attacked on Sevunna Kingdom he fight with Sevunna King & he victory on him & Ballala King established the Chola Empire.

The Hoysala Veera Narasimha Deva his minister Polalva Deva Andhra Pradesh capital city Narayanapura in this place Dattiraja & Naviladayaka had son. He was very strongest, bravery, he was very great in war weapons using he had title “Tolagada Kamba” by the 2^nd Narasimha had given this title.

This Polalva Commander had taken “Tolagad Kamba”  had built this Harihareshwara Temple. Another Inscription says. Vijayaabyudhaya Samvastra 1145 in Ekadashi Wednesday time Chola Kingdom established by Veera Narasimha Deva Commander Polalva he built the tower from 115 Gold’s the Harihareshwara temple built & completed.

The Harihareshwara temple inscriptions information that is the Lord Harihareshwara idol was not constructed by any persons that idol was made himself, when Lord Hari & Hara was joined together & came stayed here in Harihara place.  This Harihareshwara idol was in Kruthayuga which is Sanatana Dharma (Hindu Religion) 1^st Yuga of Sanatana Religion people.

In Harihareshwara Temple Navaranga had in Navaranga middle Bhuvaneshwari Idol but now we cannot see this idol with Harihareshwara idol, this Bhuvaneshwari idol was destroyed by muslim invaders had destroyed, after destroying the idol it was again made Bhuvaneshwari Devi idol but this idol is very small & kept in North West direction.

Navaranga:

Navaranga when in construction Sculptors had special skills. In entrance doorway upside had Gajalakshmi idol is there. On lotus upside Filigreed(very soft) architected the Goddess Lakshmi Devi, & in her hand Lotus, two side had elephants sketched. Mahamantapa inside Navaranga square design had on the wall roof Bhuvaneshwari Devi architect in round shape Craftsmanship had drawn in Lotus type this is very beautiful attraction for peoples.

Porch (Mukamantappa) :

Mukamantappa inside 68 types Hoysala’s pillars are there, all Porch pillars smooth, shining is there decorated by architector’s, & this Hoysala’s architect, art skills proofs was there, & Ashtadikapalaka also had architected in this walls this all are very beautiful.

Harihareshwara temple in front two lighthouse is there. It is very tall & in down very wide is there but today we cannot see this type down side became small , & it look like holding hands for keep the lamps had decorated. Badami Prabhuvarman wife Tulujabai was made this Lighthouse because of her family growth & good in future  1519 a.d inscription can know this story. This Deepastambha without tower had entrance in the temple. This entrance of temple was built by Polala commander in 1268 but for ARAMBHAOTHSAVA by famous poets & Lord Shiva devotees called Harihara & Raghavanka etc. also came here for seeing the Harihareshwara Temple. They all are Shatpadi Kavya had discussed had mentioned in History, because Polalva’s Haricharitrya book not got to read so we cannot say particular why they came for Harihareshwara Temple.

Lakshmi Mandira :-

In Harihareshwara temple left side Goddess Lakshmi Mandira (temple) is there. Hoysala architect is there & beautiful had architect it this Lakshmi Mandira is very small temple. In the temple had mantapa & this mantapa had 3 entrance  doors is there, but in Lakshmi temple is not had original Lakshmi Devi idol because of muslim invaders had destroyed it but now idol is Goddess Durga & some Historians says that Goddess Chamundeshwari idol is there but that idol was made from White Marbles but people worship as Goddess Lakshmi Devi.

Sangama Place Sangameshwara :

Harihara place east side Muddenur village is there. This village near Kumadwathi River come & join in Tungabhadra River. This joining place here water bath means all our wishes will fulfill had people hope hear in this place. Srimadh Suryasimasanadeshwara Sri Sri Sri 1008 Shrishaila Vageesha Panditharadya Shivacharya Mahaswamy birth place this is.

Harihar was an early Harihara worship center as the earliest historical reference of the place is of the Chalukyan period . This is also the opinion of Shrinivas V Padigar. There is no foundation inscription found in the temple. Statements from various historians about the renovation and construction is given below.

• Henry Cousens mentions that the temple was built by Polava, a minister of Hoysala king Narasimha II, in 1224 CE.
• Adam Hardy (referring to Epigraphia Carnatica vol XI, Dg 25) mentions that the temple was rebuilt by Poladeva-dandanayaka, an officer of Hoysala king Narasimha II in 1124 CE. The same inscription and same reference is put to 1224 CE by Shrinivas V Padigar. If the record is of the reign of king Narasimha II then 1224 CE appears most probable as 1124 will be too early for this king.
• R Gopal (referring to Mysore Archaeology Report 1937, mentions that the Hoysala king Narasimha II made a grant to this temple.
• Shrinivas V Padigar mentions that the temple underwent extensive renovation under the patronage of Somanatha-dandanayaka, a general of the Hoysala king Narasimha III, who also built the Keshava temple at Somanathapur.

Ganesha

It is very probable that the original temple was of very small proportions, and the present complex which we see today was built in the Hoysala period. The temple faces east and has a garbha-griha, antarala, mandapa and maha-mandapa.

Maha-mantapa

Maha-mantapa is supported on 58 pillars and has five openings, two each on north and south and one on east. This is not a closed mandapa but an open one with its wall rising to half height and the remaining space is left open for air to pass through. On the top of these half-walls, a stone is placed in slanted position appearing like a back-rest of a seat. This kind of open-mandapa style is observed at many temples of Chalukya and Hoysala period.

The central block of Maha-mandapa ceiling is split into nine parts using four cross-beams. Eights portions of it are occupied with ashta-dikpalas (eight directional regents) riding over their respective mounts. The ninth and central part had a Harihara image which was later removed and placed in shrine at the backside of the temple. Mandapa, which is connected to the Maha-mandapa on the east, is supported on four central pillars and has an opening at north and south.

Mahishasuramardini

The main image of lord Harihara, in garbha-griha, is badly mutilated as all the original arms are lost. Padigar mentions that in post-Hoysala period, new hands have been added together with all attributes. A stone screen is placed to cover up his lower portion as it is lost. The most striking feature of the icon which helps date its original portions is the presence of a single-beaded necklace and absence of yajnopavita. Padigar dates this image to fifth-sixth century CE.

The tower of the temple is lost.

Inscriptions: There are many Hoysala inscriptions found at Harihar. These all inscriptions are detailed in Epigraphia Carnatica vol XI (original series), however I am unable to procure this volume hence not able to provide details of these here.

The Sri Sumateendra Theertharu observing her hand said that Chakrapaaani, the Lord was her son, and her hand had the characteristic of Devaki, Her palms were that of Kausalya’s character, and requested her to show him Lord Balakrishna calling her Yashodhamma.

Giriyamma never used to take food without completing her daily routine of singing, performing pooja etc. She started putting rangoli reciting keerthanas on the Lord worshipping with turmeric-kumkum keeping the idol of Venugopala at the centre gifted by Sri Gopala Dasaru. Sri Sumateendra Theertharu who was sitting nearby happened to see the idol. He heard Giriyamma singing Keerthanaas in a melodious style. Venugopala was dancing making sounds from the tiny bells tied to his legs according to the tune from the flute. He was amazed. Giriyamma took that child in her waist and kept before the Sri Sumateendra Theertharu requesting him to give Mantrakshate to the child. Sri Sumateendra Theertharu was overwhelmed with “ Ananada Bhashpa” He said, “Kanaka Dasaru showed to Sri Vyaasarayaru the Paramaathma, Vaikunta Dasaru showed Paramaathma to Sri Vadhirajaru, Because of you, I also got the chance of looking at the heavenly manifestation of Venugopaala. Oh ! Mother, just like them I have had the Darshana of Baalakrishna because of you.

Sri Sumateendra Theertharu said “You are Yashodha, You are Kausalya, You are Anasuya”,

Giriyamma said, that it was His Moola Raama and sang
Raama Shree Raghunandana|
madanakoti mohanaanga maadhava puNcharitha karuNaapaanga||
HeLavanakatte nilaya venkata shree ranga|
sumatheendhra hRudhaya pankaja Bhrunga|
sadhaanandha kadhana vikrama bhaahu
Kothanda Dhuritha seetaaraama shree raghnandhana.||

Next day it was a day for Tapthamudra DhaaraNa. “Sudharshana Homa” was conducted and all had Mudradhaarane. When it was the turn of Giriyamma, the Sri Sumateendra Theertharu observing her stretched hands, said that Sri Hari had himself had done “Chakraankana” and he had no powers to do “Chakraankana” to her. He said not only those Bhakthas who had darshan of these hands had become pure, he was also fortunate to have been blessed” and thus praised Giriyamma. Helavanakatte Giriyamma has her Ankitha nama as "Helavanakatte Ranga".

Komaranahalli:-

Komaranahalli is about one Km from Malebennur, on Harihara Shimoga Road. It is a scared place, graced by Sri Lakshmi Ranganatha. The temple is by the side of a small tank, on a hillock. The tank was built by a Helava and hence named Helavanakatte. Sri Ranganatha was Ishtadaiva of Helavanakatte Giriyamma, a famous devotee and author of many Kannada kavyas. The site by the temple, which was petitioned by Appa earlier, was sanctioned by the Government as per recommendations of the Deputy Commissioner of Chitradurga District.

The foundation stone of Sri Ranganatha Ashram was laid on 08-08-1951. An Audumbara tree was planted on the same day. M/s Ramanarayana Avadhani, K. A. Venkatesh Rao, Gundu Rao, of Shimoga and scores of people from Malebennur worked in the construction of Ashrama. Nadig Subba Rao of Malebennur used to read Kumaravyasa Bharatha. Appa arranged for the reading of this epic and also, Thimmanna's Bharatha and Jaimini's Bharatha of Lakshmisha. After every parva a grand Santharpana was arranged.

In 1951, Audumbara Ashrama was established at Miyapura. In 1952, Appa spent the Navarathri at Miyapur. Holalu Mallara Bhattaru came and took darshan of Appa there. Once somebody asked Appa 'why don't you arrange for Jnana dasoha only at Ashrama" Appa replied 'If one who feeds with Jnana only and can go on, without eating, then it will be meaningful.
As a Jnani has the experience of being the Atman in all living beings, he shows compassion to all living beings. But if he eats food, and serves Jnana only to others it will be meaningless". Appa said “We belong to Chidambara Pantha. Anna santarpane should be arranged here on a large scale."

Appa had assured his followers that he would uplift and liberate them within seven lives. One day when he was in the temple choultry (Lakshman Rao) Achanna asked him "Appa you say that you would uplift and liberate us within seven lives. Tell us what our present state is."
Appa: "Lakshmana have you got a Guru."
Achanna: "Definitely, I have got the greatest possible Guru."
Appa: If so leave it to Him. Why do you worry? We love ignorant sishyas. Intelligent shishyas indulge in kutarka (Mal-logic)
Achanna: what is kutarka?
Appa: Not believing anything which is addressed to them.
Achanna: Appa you bypass any question I ask. You must answer this one.
Appa smiled and said "Go to tank yard, touch the well there and come back. While doing so perform Japa of the manthra I have given you. On your return, If you give me the count of Japa, I will tell you exactly where you are..

Dummi Achanna, Anaji Satyanna, Raghanna and Gundappa went to the well and returned. When Appa asked the count of Japa, they could not answer as they had not recited the Japa mentally even once. They fell down at his feet, and cried. Appa assured them that it has happened so because of His will. He asked them to “Follow the Guru. Do not question him unnecessarily”

Vedamurthy Keshava Ghanapaty was suffering from a pain in his stomach and his finances had nosedived. He came to Appa. Appa cured his stomach pain by a mere touch and asked him to practice Pourohitya. Ganapathi said "Is it not Parigraha”. Appa said "If you demand a sum for a particular homa, Japa or any other Vedic practice, it will be parigraha. If you are satisfied with what a grihasta gives it will not be so."

Sri Sri Sridhara Swamiji of Varada halli came to Komaranahally and gave a discourse on the greatness of Ramataraka Manthra. After the Bhiksha Vandana he was taking rest. But his secretary asked for him to be woken up as they had to reach Shimoga in time for a procession. Swamiji exclaimed "I wanted to rest in the presence of Sri Rama. But the world doesn't allow me to do so”.Shivappa Desai of Hospet was a prominent congress leader and freedom fighter. He was fed up with politics after the demise of his wife and came in search of "Bhagavan" at the bidding of a Jyortirlinga. Appa received him well. He gave him certain observances and asked him to return only after nine years. He named him as ‘Hamsa’. While the revered Hamsa was at Ramanatha Puram, he could not see the form of Appa during dhyana. One, Sri Nagappa of that place was an upasaka of Devi, and had Siddhis. He voluntarily offered to see Appa and tell him the exact state of affairs. He came to Komaranahalli and met Appa. His ego was removed by Appa, He returned a sober man. Later, Hamsa established Shankaralinga Ashrama at Arasikere.

Smt.Bhagirathamma came and settled at Komaranahalli. She had a piece of wet land at Bannur. She couldn't realize any money from it, nor could she sell it off. Appa sent Narayanamurthy with her to Bannur. He could not return from there to Huzur Jamabandi (Annual inspection of village accounts from the Deputy Commissioner). So, he wrote a letter to Appa expressing his anxiety. Appa replied "If you perform the duty of Rama, he will attend to your work." As the Jamabandi was postponed, Narayamurthy did not face any trouble. From the proceeds of the sale of the lands, Bhagirathamma gave fourteen thousand rupees to Appa. Appa purchased a land at Miyapura for the Ashrama. It was a barren land and fetched nothing. Later it was partially irrigated by the Bhadra channel. The rice of that land is used at Ranganathaashrama.

Appa's body was being battered by diseases. Sometimes, he could not get up for weeks on end. Once, he asked Narayanmurthy to take him to Vaikunta from Kailasa. The Ashram being the abode of Chidambara was Kailasa and the adjacent temple of Ranganatha Vaikunta!!! They carried him on a chair as he could not walk. There was a flowery adornment to the chair. Appa said "My followers have brought Pushpaka Vimana to transport me".
Kulandai Anandar revisited Appa at Komaranahalli. But no details are available. It is stated by some yogis that all the leading yogis, famous all over the world, visit Appa. We cannot comprehend it. We can recount an incident in this regard. One of Appa's disciples began to suffer from stomach pain which could not be cured. Another Shishya who had regained lifeby His kripa, lost his eyesight. They approached Appa and requested him to help them to overcome the disease. Appa said "Sri Gurunatha has once helped you and gave you life and relief. Don't think that he keeps a shop of miracles." The sishya suffering from stomach pain approached a world famous Mahatma (who is still alive) and asked him to cure his disease. He said after some time "you are under the care of Parabrahma. I am only buffoon in His circus company and am here to direct men towards the ultimate truth. Kindly go to your Guru, convey my pranams and ask him to cure you."
Appa selected a rock adjacent to the ashrama and caused a cave to be carved therein. One day Narayana murthy came to Komaranahalli. There was no fuel in Ashrama. The implements to dig the cave were inadequate. Appa said "Everyone cries for himself and his family. Who is there to cry for Guru?"

During this time the health of Appas body deteriorated. Some men began speculating about his successor in hush-hush. One day Appa heard this talk going on. He said "Here is my Jolige (a cloth made thing to receive alms) He who picks it up and begs in my successor." Verily Parameshwara descended to this earth as Shankaralinga to uplift and liberate his disciples. Shankaralinga became Paramatma by premabhakthi. Paramatma, to set an example of Premabhakthi, became Shankaralinga. Nithya Shuddha, Buddha, Sakshi Chaitanya, Bhuma, Nethi Nethyatmaka Parabrahma seems to be Shankaralinga. Shankaralinga, by swarupanusandhana, gave up Eshana-Thraya (Puthreshana, Vitheshana, and Dareshana) and became Parabrahma.

It was Phalguna shuddha Thritiya. Appa was reclining on the cot. Janamma washed his face and applied Vibhuthi and Kumkuma, and went inside. The dwellers in the Ashrama were engaged in their duties. On the same day Nagappa of Ramanathpuram took darshana of Appa outside the Ashrama, and was taught by Appa regarding Brahma. Nagappa of Harihara and Subbabhatta of Malebennur bowed down before him and went away. All of a sudden 'OM' Kara was heard everywhere in the Ashrama. Bhutanatha of Ranganathaswamy entered the body of Archakas and cried loudly. The yogamandira was lit by resplendence equal to many Suns. Appa merged with Akhanda Brahma (Brahmaivasun Brahmapyethi). To the Sons (followers) of Appa, the news was like a thunder bold striking them. The Sun of Atmajnana, The Full Moon who was shining in the hearts of shishyas, had set. Fierce sorrow surrounded everywhere.

The next day, the body was buried in the cave which Appa had got dug. Before burial, the body was bathed with Rudra Prashna. It was worshipped by Shiva sahasranama with Bilva and by Vishnu sahasranama with Thulasi. There, on the hill at Komaranahalli, by the side of Sri Lakshmi Ranganatha Swamy, rests the scared body, the treasure house of Thapas, performed for Six hundred years, starting from Sri Narasimha Saraswathi upto Shankaralinga. The sacred place is Kailasa, the abode of Samadhi, Vaikunta, the abode of Lakshmi Ranganatha, and Sathyaloka, the abode of Audumbara. He who goes there will be uplifted towards Mukthi. It is like Kamadhenu which grants all that Bhaktas seek.
Glory to Shankaralinga, our Dear Appa! May He grant us the Ananda of remembering Him, always!

In the Sanctum Sanctorum of the Temple is the Udbhavamurthy of Ranga (Ranganatha) and Linga (Shiva) emerging out from a single rock. In this place, the legendary Helavanakatte Giriamma, a great devotee of Sri Ranganatha, is said to have lived and composed her famous Kirtanas which are a regarded as a part of the Dasa Sahitya. During the Murugodu Yatra, Appa had stayed along with the other Devotees at this Temple on the day of Ramanavami.

Sri Ranganatha Ashrama:

Appa had come to live at Komaranahalli in the Rest house of the Ranganathaswamy Temple. He had petitioned to Government to allot the land adjacent to the temple for formation of an ashrama. It was granted and alloted. During October 1951, the foundation for Ranganathashrama started with the consecration of an Audumbara tree & from another source will get Sri Ranganatha Ashrama Helavanakatte Sri Ranganatha Swamy & Giriyamma temple left side Shankarlinga Bhagavan Saraswathi Paramahamsa  his last days here meditated  not it became Ashrama 2 ½ acres land Sri Ranganatha Ashrama is there. Here Coconut trees, Lemon, Curry Trees, Neem Trees, & different types of flowers are grow up.

Appa wanted to takeup Mahasamadhi, for which he started construction of a rock cut cave. The roof of the cave was to be just below the level of the Rock from which Ranga and Linga deities emerged. The cave construction did not progress as expected. On the Phalguna Shuddha Thrutheeya Day (16-07-1953) Appa left his body and merged into the Divine. His holy mortal remains was brought to the Cave and the cave was closed after performing the rites prescribed by the Shastras.Outside the Samadhi, the Prarthana Mandira has been build, next to which is the Yogamandira. The Ashrama premises also has a Datta mantapa, a Vyasamandira and several rooms for people to stay during the Annual events. Also part of the Ashrama are a Well, some Coconut grooves and a garden

How to Reach :Being on the State Highway, the Ashrama is well connected. Nearest Railway station is the Harihar Station at a distance of 14 km. Many buses from Davangere and Harihar going towards Honnali and Shimoga stop at Malebennur. There are many Auto-rickshaws available from Malebennur.
