________________ Vol. III, 1997-2002 Jina Pārśva and his Temples.... 99 31.5. Narasana Nayaka built a Pārsvanātha basadi at Māgodu (ibid., Sa. 55. c. 15th pp.100-02). 33. 31.6. Jakkavve, wife of mahapradhana Cavimayya constructed a cenna-Pārsva temple at Heragu [EC. VIII(R). 146. 1155. Pp. 376-78). 31.7. A 12th century Arhat Pärśva basadi continues to flourish at Cāmarāja-nagara, a newly formed district headquarters from 1997 [MAR. 1908. p. 9.1117; MAR 1916-p. 53; ibid., 1927. p. 62; ibid., 1931. p. 42; EC. IV(R) ch. 2 (IV ch 83) 1163 A. D. pp. 4-6]. This temple, a 'trikūta-basadi' olim 'Punisa-jinālaya', was erected by Punisa-rāja-dandādhipa. 32. Ādaki (Gulbarga Dt) Cenna-Pārsvadeva-basadi olim Koppa-jinālaya enjoyed special privileges [Gogi, H: 1996 : A. D. 1125, pp. 465-67]. Similarly, Berambadi [EC. III(R) Gu. 218 (IV Gu 96) 14c. pp. 157-58] and Atanür [Gulbarg Dt/Afzalpur Tk. 11th c. A. D). Pārsva temples were very popular. Elsewhere in the State, Gulbarga District alone had mediaeval Pārsva-jinālayas in the following villages : Aland, Gogi, Keśvaragadi, Gavhāra, Jevargi, Cirtapur, Gulbarga, Dandoti, Jevanagi, Degalamadi Nelogi (Nelavagi), Peyha-éirüra, Mannura, Sedam, Sulepete, Hunasihadagali, Harasūru, Lād-ciñcoli, Rājana-kolür, et cetera. In South Canara (Mangalore and Udupi/Dts) there are nearely 20 Pārsva temples. In Mūdabidare, a great Jaina centre, Gurugala-basadi is the pivot of other 18 basadis (SII. VII. 225. 1384). The Pārsva image in this basadi is said to be dated to the tenth century. Besides, there are two Pärsvanätha temples (ARIE. 1941. A-1. p. 5 ff]; one of them is called 'Candogra-Pārsva-deva-basadi', which received royal patronage from the Alupa kings of Tuluva (Saletore : 1938 : 352]. 33.1. There are seven Pārśva temples at Karkala alone, each with different designations : Hallara-basadi, Addakeri-basadi, gummadhikäri-basadi, Bommarāja-basadi, Betrada-basadi, Eda-bala-basadi, and Ammanavara-basadi. 33.2. At Māla and its surroundings eight Pārśva temples exist; they are, Eda-bala basadi, Belli-bidu-basadi (Marodi), Perādi-basadi, Hejmādi-basadi, Padan-gadi basadi, Dagga-Abbana bețțu-basadi, sirva-basadi, and Nallūru-basadi. 33.3. At Venuru there is a Caturvimśati-basadi and a Pārsva-jinālaya olim Kelagina basadi, Bettada-basadi and Aladangadi-basadi (Dodda-basadi) at Garadādi; Nidagallu-basadi, valālu-basadi at guruvāyanakere; all the four temples at Buveripuddottu including the Sūrālu palace temple; Hattiangadi palace temple, and Pārsvanātha temple at Madurapatia; Padubidri cikka-basadi, triküta kere-basadi, Arekallu-basadi, Ballamanja-basadi, Kudibailu-basadi, Mijāru-basadi and the Manjeśvara-basadi are all Pārsva temples of the later mediaeval period. 33.4. A detailed description of these Pārśva temples based on the field-work and historical records is beyond the scope of this paper. Therefore, I have given only an exhaustive list.
