Abalur is a village in the southern state of Karnataka, India.[1][2] It is located in the Hirekerurtaluk of Haveri district in Karnataka. Abalur is the birthplace of Sarvajña, considered most prolific poet in Kannada literature and famous for his three-line poems called Thripadigalu.
Abalur has a very famous Basavanna Temple (Nandi) of pre modern times and worshipped by many villages in and around. The place is recognized by Karnataka Tourism. During the months of Feb/Mar the village folks arrange a jathre Mela or festival for the village deity, where people from neighboring villages visit the temple and offer prayers.
It was once known as a famous centre of Jainism.[3] Details collected from Harihara's biography and poet Basava Purana mentions the dispute between Jainas and a proponent of Shaivism named Ekandata Ramaiah at Abalur in the second half of the twelfth century.[4] Following this the Jaina images at Abalur were destroyed. A sculpture depicting the breaking up of the Jina image can be seen at the Someshwara temple at Abalur.[5]
