karikana parameshwari temple - A MUST SEE near Gokarna

     If you go to Gokarna, Murdeshwar , Idugunji etc (which are in North Kanara district of Karnataka ) you should visit this temple. karikana temple. No, no I have not become devout suddenly. I am still confused sem-atheist. But I am advising you to visit this temple because of its views. It is located near Honnavar

Did I tell
    If you look down, you see hills and trees everywhere and at the end of the horizon, you see Arabian sea. You know it is sea, because it is emnating light, illuminating the surroundings with orange glow. You also see one more small horizontal light which it seems is a river. It IS beauty.
    I can not describe it with my limited vocabulary.

How to get there:

   You take a deviation in Honnavar from the main road, and go to AreAngadi ( around 5 kms) From Areangadi, another 5 kms you have to go. But please bear in mind. There are no busses to this place. You may have to take a private vehicle from Honnavar

It is a 40 year old memory. 2) There are also many tripadis(poem

ಒಗಟು

ಇದು ಕನ್ನಡದ ಒಂದು ಒಗಟು. ಅಮ್ಮ ಹೇಳಿಕೊಟ್ಟಿದ್ದು. ನೋಡಿ ಬಿಡಿಸಲು ಆಗುವುದೋ ಎಂದು. ಉತ್ತರೆಯ ತಾಯ ತಮ್ಮನ ಕತ್ತಲೆಯಲಿ ಒತ್ತಿ ಕೊಂದವನ ಅಗ್ರಜನ ಪಿತನ ವಾಹನದನ್ತಿರ್ಪವನೆ !!! Hint : you must know your Mahabharatha well. One more. ಹರನ ಹಾರನ ಆಹಾರನ ಸುತನ ದೇವನ ಮಡದಿಯಂ ಕದ್ದೊಯ್ದವನ ಅನುಜನ ಮಡದಿಯೆನಗೊಲಿದಿರ್ಪಳ್ P.S. : If you find the solution, you can mention it in the comment :) Since no one came up with solutions, let me mention them. Uttara's mother's younger brother is Keechaka. The one who killed him in darkness is Bheema. His agraja - elder brother - is Dharmaraya. whose pita - father is Yama. Yama's vahana is buffalo. So the ogatu, is to call some one a buffalo. Second one is Hara's garland - haara is snake, Snake's food is Vaayu - air. Vaayu's son is Hanuman. His god is Rama. The person who kidnapped Rama's madadi - wife - is Ravana. Ravana's anuja is Kumbhakarna. His wife is Nidra - sleep. So all this just to say I am sleepy.

Perpetually Perplexed
