Detail InformationEdit

Malayala Brahma Temple is to the right of Sri Sharadamba Temple. Legend says that a brahmana scholar after learning the nuances of Vedas and Sastras instead of sharing his knowledge with others and teaching others refused to do so which went against his dharma. He was cursed to become a Brahma rakshas. During Sage Vidyaranya’s time, on one of the pilgrimages of the Sage, the Brahma rakshas stopped his way and begged to free him of the curse. The Sage divined what had happened and then directed him to stay at Sringeri as a Kshetra Palaka (care taker of the Mutt). The Kshetra Palaka is locally called Malayala Brahma. The Murti of this deity carries a mace and wears pada raksha and is installed to the left of the door of the Sharadamba temple.
