Lord Mallikarjuna temple
The place gets its name "Mudukuthore" from the river Cauvery as it gets a turn and flows forward. Muduku means 'diversion' and thore means 'flow forward'.
During Mahabharatha period, Arjuna, one of the Pandavas stayed here on the hill. He carved the idol of Lord Shiva and did pooja with "Mallika pushpa" (a kind of flower). That's the reason the Lord Shiva is called Mallikarjuna.
It is one of the five temples that are part of the Panchalingadarshana held at Talakad once every 12 years. The five temples, Sri Kshethra Vaideshwara, Sri Pathaleshwara, Sri Maruleshwara, Sri Arakeshwara and Sri Mudukuthore Mallikarjuneshwara, are believed to be Panchalingas and thus have become famous.[2]
The festival takes place simultaneously at the above five temples of Shiva. The temples are decorated with plantain stalks and flowers and the pilgrims undertaking Panchalinga Darshana offer their Pooja to the God.[3]
The uniqueness of this festival is that the poojas at the five temples begin at the same time, following the ancient tradition for obtaining blessings for devotees and rulers of the country.
Lord Mullikarjuna is accompanied with Sri Bhramarambhika Devi.
