The Mahisha cult, a historically rich and unique tradition, continues to thrive on the west coast of South India, particularly in Karnataka. This ancient belief system finds its roots in a time when the region was ruled by powerful dynasties like the Alupas and the Vijayanagara Empire.
According to Prof T Murugeshi, retired Associate Professor in Ancient History and Archaeology at MSRS College, Shirva in Udupi taluk, the only known temple dedicated to Mahisha is situated in Barakuru, once the capital of the Alupa dynasty in Udupi district. He added that the presence of this temple underscores the deep cultural significance of Mahisha in the region.
