900 Year Old Sri Keerthinarayana Temple Talakad | 2018
Talakadu is a desert-like town on the left bank of the Kaveri river 45 km (28 miles) from Mysore and 133 km (82 miles) from Bangalore in Karnataka, India. It once had over 30 temples, most of which now lay buried in sand. The extant group of temples, where the eastward flowing Kaveri river changes course as the sand on its banks spreads over a wide area, is a popular pilgrimage site for Hindus.
he origin of the town is lost in antiquity; but one tradition is that its name was derived from two Kirāta twin brothers, Tala and Kādu, who, cutting down a tree which they saw wild elephants worshiping, discovered that it contained an image of shiva, and that the elephants were rishis transformed. The tree being miraculously restored, all obtained mōksha and the place was named Tala-kādu, which was translated into Sanskrit as Dala-vana. Two stone images declared to represent the brothers are pointed out in front of the temple Veerabadra swamy. In a later age, Rāma is said to have halted here on his expedition to Lanka.

Keertinarayana Temple & Pataleshwara Temple of Talakadu,Karnataka,India
Talakad is one of the Pancha Narayana Kshetrams where the Keerthi Narayana temple was established and the presiding Deity in this temple is Keerthi Narayana . Keerthinarayana is one of the Pancha Narayana (Vishnu) shrines built in the year 1117 AD by King Vishnuvardhana around the same time, as ordained by the Lord. According to the art historian Adam Hardy, the Kirtinarayana temple (also spelt Keertinarayana) was built in 1117 A.D. by the famous Hoysala King Vishnuvardhana to celebrate his victory over the Cholas in the battle of Talakad.
Talakadu is a desert-like town on the left bank of the Kaveri river 45 km (28 miles) from Mysore and 133 km (82 miles) from Bangalore in Karnataka, India. It once had over 30 templesThe most imposing temple left uncovered by the sand is that of vydyanatheshwara temple. More than thirty temples, it is stated, are beneath the sand, but the Kírti Nārāyana temlpe has been successfully excavated.This is the only Hoysala architecture found in Talakad today.
One of the oldest temples constructed by the Ganga kings in the town, Pathaleshwara Temple is temple with some uniqueness to it and one of the five lingams in the town.
The Shiva lingam installed in the temple changed its hue with the different time of day. The Lingam is red in morning, black in the afternoon and white at night, adding a mysterious touch to this ancient temple.
Panchalinga Darsana Talakadu
King Srirangaraya's wife was Alamelamma. Srirangaraya died of carbuncle in course of time. Alamelamma used to send her ornaments every Friday to decorate Sri Ranganayaki the spouse of Sriranganatha at Srirangapatna. On a certain Friday she did not send the ornaments for some reason. The King of Mysore sent force to bring those ornaments, she was helpless and so found all ornaments and jumped into the Cauvery river near Malangi cursing LET TALAKADU BECOME SANDY, LET MALANGI BE A SWAMP AND MAY NOT THE KINGS OF MYSORE HAVE ANY CHILDREN . This is continuing since her death. The temples here will often be covered in sand and so Panchalinga Darshana will be performed only once in 5 years or 7 years. ( Now Panchalinga Darshana will be performed on December 2nd 2013)
Oldest Dam in Karnataka 900 years old Madhavmantri Dam at Talakadu, Mysore tourism Karnataka tourism
Oldest Dam in Karnataka 900 years old Madhavmantri Dam at Talakadu, Mysore tourism Karnataka tourism. The Madhava Mantri Dam built across river Cauvery near Talakadu in Tirumakudlu Narasipur (T. Narasipur) of Mysore district, Karnataka.
A few years back, a portion of the Madhava Mantri Dam collapsed and had destroyed crops grown in thousands of acres near Talakad. As per the new plan, a cement concrete dam will be built with a total length of 527 metres. The old structure will be pulled down and according to Talakad villagers, once the new dam comes up, T. Narasipur will lose a piece of history.
Though there is a dispute regarding the exact date of the Madhava Mantri Dam at Talakad (according to government engineers, it was built in the year 1140 AD), records say that it was built in 14th century AD by Madhava Mantri, an eminent Minister and Viceroy in the Vijayanagar period.
The structure has been built by mud and earthwork and offers a wonderful topography for River Cauvery to create a miniature Falls over it. The dam, which is used for irrigation purpose, doubles as a picnic spot during monsoon. The Madhava Mantri dam is located at Hemmige, some four kilometres from Talakadu. Normally, a portion of the dam breaches whenever there is a major release of water from the Krishna Raja Sagar (KRS) Dam in Mandya.
Legends say that the Madhava Mantri Dam was built by the Vijayanagar kings. Talakadu and all of Mysuru and South Karnataka were once part of the famed Vijayanagar Empire and Bukka was the ruling Emperor. One of his many Ministers was Madhava Mantri.
A signboard on the structure says that the dam was built in 1140 AD making it the second oldest dam next only to the Grand Anicut, built by Chola King Karikalan during the first century, on the Cauvery further downstream at Tiruchirapalli in Tamil Nadu.
Madhava Mantri was a Brahmin and was as apt at debates and war. Bukka deputed him to conquer Goa from the Bahamani kings. Madhava Mantri seized Goa and built a Gommateshwara Temple. Bukka then ordered Madhava Mantri to look after the Mysore province. Madhava Mantri then decided to build a dam across the Cauvery a little upstream Talakadu. He did so as he wanted to divert the water for irrigation purposes.The sand hills used to advance upon the town at the rate of 9 or 10 feet a year, principally during the south-west monsoon and as they pressed it close on three sides. The inhabitants of Talkād were constantly forced to abandon their houses and retreat further inland. The town, however, is increasing in population, owing to the rich wet cultivation in the neighbourhood, derived from the Mādhavamantri anicut and channel. More than thirty temples, it is stated, are beneath the sand, but the Kírti Nārāyana temlpe has been successfully excavated. The most imposing temple left uncovered by the sand is that of vydyanatheshwara temple.
Talakadu is a desert-like town on the left bank of the Kaveri river 45 km from Mysore and 133 km from Bangalore in Karnataka, India. It once had over 30 temples, most of which now lay buried in sand. It is a popular pilgrimage site for Hindus.Other near by places of interest for mysore tourists are the temples of Talakadu, the Pathaleshwara, Maruleshwara, Arkeshwara, Vaidyanatheshwara and Mallikarjuna temples, the five Lingas believed to represent the five faces of Shiva, form the Pancha pathi and have become famous.Talakadu is one of the Pancha Narayana Kshetrams where the Keerthi Narayana temple was established and the presiding Deity in this temple is Keerthi Narayana.
