CUT AND PASTE JOB: Sri Kshetra Kanakagiri is located in Chamarajanagar district and is about 53 km from Mysore and 18 km from Chamarajanagar, touching the borders of three States of Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Kerala. Kanakagiri, which is very close to Maleyuru village, is flanked by dense forest with numerous sandalwood and red sander trees. The various scriptures, sculptures, stone inscriptions, samadhi mantaps, caves and taverns in and around Kanakagiri stand as epitomes of the glorious past of this place. Many saints attained salvation on this hill. This temple is also known for relieving devotees from "Kaala Sarpa Dosha" (associated with Rahu and Ketu, not particularly related to snake according to astrological science). BRIEF HISTORY: (Source Wiki) It is one of the important Jain pilgrim centres of Karnataka known in ancient times as Hemanga Desha. It is believed that Jain saint Acharya Pujyapada established a monastery here in 5th century. The scriptures in Kanakagiri mentions that Lord Mahavira visited this area and held a Samavasharan Divya Sabha (a meeting). Kanakgiri houses stone inscriptions dating to period of Western Gangas, Hoysalas, Vijayanagara Empire and Wodeyars of Mysore. The Parshvanatha temple was built by the kings of the Western Ganga dynasty in the 5th or 6th century. Kings of later dynasties such as the Hoysala, Vijayanagara and Wadiyar also patronised this temple. It is believed that one king worshipped Bhagwan Parshwanatha here before proceeding to a war in which he was victorious and hence he named the deity as "Vijaya Parshwanatha." According to inscription dated 909 CE, the temple was an important Jain center and mentions temple receiving grants under the leadership of Bhattaraka Kanakasena. An inscription dating back to 916 CE refers to construction of a Jain temple by Western Ganga King named Nitimarga. During the reign of Hoysalas, Jain images both rock cut and structural were further added. ABOUT THE TEMPLE: The main temple on the 350 steps hillock is enclosed in a fort, has four main parts, namely, the mukhamantapa, the navaranga, the sukhanasi and the garbhagriha. This temple enshrines idols of five main deities together – Parshwanatha, Padmavati, Jwalamalini, Kushmandini, and Kshetrapala Bramha Yaksha. The garbhagriha houses Bhagwan Parshwanatha while the sukhanasi houses the rest. There are 3 temples and Footprints of 24 tirthankaras. This temple also includes an 18-feet monolithic idol of Bahubali. Kanakagiri is the only Jain temple where Kalasarpadosha parihara puja is performed. According to legends, Queen Deverammanni of Mysore royal family once suffered from kaalasarpadosha and found relief on worshiping the Goddesses here. So, she gave the temple a unique idol of the hood of snake bearing Dharanendra and Padmavathi figures. The idol is currently placed in the sukhanasi. There are 24 charans (foot prints) of the 24 Tirthankaras near the temple complex. There are caves on the hill where Jain saints once meditated.
