ನಮ್ಮ ಬೆಂಗಳೂರಿನ ಕೋರಮಂಗಲ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಒಂದು ತ್ಯಾಗದ ಕಥೆ.. ಬೆಂಗಳೂರಿನ ಎಲ್ಲಾ ನಿವಾಸಿಗಳಿಗೆ ಈ ವಿಷಯ ತಿಳಿಯಲೇಬೇಕು !

ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ನಗರವನ್ನು ಕಟ್ಟಿ ಆಳಿದ ನಾಡಪ್ರಭು ಕೆಂಪೇಗೌಡರ ಮನೆಗೆ ಅಂದಿನ ಕೋರಮಂಗಲ ಗ್ರಾಮದ ಲಕ್ಷ���ಮೀದೇವಿ ಎನ್ನುವ ಹೆಣ್ಣುಮಗಳು ಸೊಸೆಯಾಗಿ ಬರುತ್ತಾರೆ. ಮುಂದೆ ಕೆಂಪೇಗೌಡರು ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ದಕ್ಷಿಣಭಾಗದಲ್ಲಿ ಕೋಟೆಯನ್ನು ಕಟ್ಟಲು ಪ್ರಾರಂಭಿಸುತ್ತಾರೆ. ಈ ಸಮಯದಲ್ಲಿ ಲಕ್ಷ್ಮೀದೇವಿಯವರು ಗರ್ಭಿಣಿಯಾಗಿರುತ್ತಾರೆ. ಕೋಟೆ ಕಟ್ಟುವಾಗ ಒಂದು ಸಮಸ್ಯೆ ತಲೆದೋರುತ್ತದೆ. ಕೋಟೆಯ ದಿಡ್ಡಿ ಬಾಗಿಲನ್ನು ನಿಲ್ಲಿಸಿದಾಗ, ಮರುದಿನ ಅದು ಬಿದ್ದು ಹೋಗಿರುತ್ತದೆ. ಈ ರೀತಿ ಹಲವಾರು ಬಾರಿ ಆಗುತ್ತದೆ. ಆಗ ಜ್ಯೋತಿಷಿಯೊಬ್ಬರನ್ನು ಕೇಳಲಾಗಿ ಅವರು ಗರ್ಭಿಣಿ ಹೆಣ್ಣಿನ ಬಲಿ ಕೊಟ್ಟರೆ ದಿಡ್ಡ��� ಬಾಗಿಲು ನಿಲ್ಲುವುದು ಎಂದು ಹೇಳುತ್ತಾರೆ. ಈ ಪ್ರಸ್ತಾಪವನ್ನು ಕೆಂಪೇಗೌಡರು ಸುತರಾಂ ಒಪ್ಪುವುದಿಲ್ಲ. ಅದನ್ನು ಕೇಳಿಸಿಕೊಂಡ ಲಕ್ಷ್ಮೀದೇವಿಯವರು ಬೆಂಗಳೂರಿನ ಕೋಟೆ ಭದ್ರವಾಗಿರಬೇಕೆಂದು ಹಾಗೂ ತಮ್ಮ ಮಾವನವರಿಗೆ ಹಾಗೂ ಊರ ಜನತೆಗೆ ಒಳಿತಾಗಲೆಂದು ಸರಿ ರಾತ್ರಿಯ ಹೊತ್ತು ಕೋಟೆ ಬಾಗಿಲ ಬಳಿ ಬಂದು ತನ್ನನ್ನು ತಾನೇ ಬಳಿ ಕೊಡುತ್ತಾರೆ. ಕೆಂಪೇಗೌಡರು ಮಾರನೇ ದಿನ ಬಂದು ನೋಡಿದಾಗ ಕೋಟೆಯ ದಿಡ್ಡಿ ಬಾಗಿಲು ನಿಂತಿರುತ್ತದೆ. ಆದರೆ ಪಕ್ಕದಲ್ಲೇ ರಕ್ತದ ಮಡುವಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಬಿದ್ದಿರುವ ಸೊಸೆಯನ್ನು ನೋಡಿ ದಿಗ್ಭ್ರಾಂತರಾಗುತ್ತಾರೆ. ಆಗ ಕೋರಮಂಗಲ ಗ್ರಾಮದ ಜನತೆ ಲಕ್ಷ್ಮೀದೇವಿಯ ತ್ಯಾಗಕ್ಕಾಗಿ ಆಕೆಗಾಗಿ ಒಂದು ದೇಗುಲವನ್ನು ಕಟ್ಟುತ್ತಾರೆ. ಇದು ಅಲ್ಲಿರುವ ಶಿಲೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಬರೆದಿರುವ ವಿಷಯದ ಸಾರಾಂಶ. ಲಕ್ಷ್ಮೀದೇವಿ ಅವರ ಸಮಾಧಿ ಹಾಗೂ ಸ್ಮಾರಕ ಈಗಲೂ ಕೋರಮಂಗಲದ 8ನೇ ಬ್ಲಾಕ್ ನಲ್ಲಿ ಇದೆ.

ರಾಷ್ಟ್ರಕೂಟ ಕಾಲದ ಕನ್ನಡ ದೇವದಾನ ಶಾಸನ ಪತ್ತೆ
A Kannada inscription from the Rashtrakuta era has been unearthed in the Navaranga mantapa of Ramalingeshwara Temple in Huvina Hadagali taluk's Hugaluru (ಹುಗಲೂರು) village.
Inscription is 3.5 feet tall and 2 feet width. On top is a Shivling and opposite it a cow feeding its calf and symbols of Sun and Moon. 
Accoriding to researcher D.Veeresha Halaguru who discovered it, the inscription says: During Rashtrakuta king Akalavarsha Kannaradeva (ರಾಷ್ಟ್ರಕೂಟ ಅರಸ ಅಕಾಲವರ್ಷ ಕನ್ನರದೇವ - Could be Krishna I, II or III, more clarity required)'s reign, his feudatory (ಮಹಾಸಾಮಂತ ರೊಟ್ಟಯ್ಯ) governed. Annayya's grandson ಗೊಗ್ಗಯ್ಯ ruled ಪುಗ್ಗಿಲೂರು (Hugaluru) as ಗಾವುಂಡ. Goggayya donated 54 "ಮತ್ತರು ಭೂಮಿ" for "ಮಲ್ಲಿಕಾರ್ಜುನ ದೇವರ ಸೇವೆ", to grow "ವೀಳ್ಯೆದೆಲೆ". 
Inscription concludes with a curse (ಶಾಪಾಶಯ): Steal this land and be reborn as a "ಸಗಣಿಯ ಹುಳು" in hell for "ಅರವತ್ತು ಸಾವಿರ ವರ್ಷ"
