Mysuru Dasara

11 Oct

Temple in Kotturu mandal

The principal temple recorded for Kotturu mandal is Shri Guru Kottureshwara Temple. No temple of this dedication is on record within Mangapura itself.

Mysuru Dasara in Karnataka

Nadahabba — the state festival. Bombe Habba doll steps at home; Mysuru Dasara is the public form, the Jamboo Savari procession on Vijayadashami carrying the Chamundeshwari idol on a decorated elephant.

The regional form observed across Karnataka. How any one household or village keeps it varies, and is not something recorded here.

Where Dasara was kept before Mysuru

The Mahanavami Dibba at Hampi is the platform the Vijayanagara kings climbed to preside over Mahanavami — military reviews, processions, dance and the reception of envoys. Krishnadevaraya raised it in 1513 after the Udayagiri campaign. The Dasara that Mysuru keeps today is the same festival, carried on from here.
