thread_title: Temples in Udupi

message: I have heard from elders when I was a kid that actually the name 'Udupi' denotes Shiva with Crescendo Moon on his head referring to Chandramouliswara Temple in Udupi. Any comments?? Subramanya 07:23, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

message: I tried editing the page, but have been facing differences from other editors. I know for sure that kanakana kindi is the window, that can be seen from the inside AND outside of the temple, and above which kanaka gopura(the arch) has been built. Outside the temple, there is a statue of kanaka daasa erected too, and this faces the window. This window is not nine holed but has 3 bars.
Navagraha kindi, however is the window that is right in front of the idol of Lord Krishna, and this has 9 holes. This is the window that has carvings of 10 incarnations of vishnu, NOT the other.It makes spatial sense too and matches the tales.
The picture in the beginning, captioned 'Sri Krishna mata' is actually kanaka gopura and not the temple entrance.

replies: text: Tulu is the major language of Udupi. Other languages spoken are Kannada and Konkani. Kundagannada is spoken in Kundapura taluk of Udupi district, not Udupi town. I belong to coastal Karnataka  and hence can  vouch for this fact.--Pavanaja (talk) 12:38, 6 September 2021 (UTC)

replies: text: There is no official status for Tulunadu from any government. But people refer the Tulu speaking areas of coastal region as Tulunadu. This comprises of Kasaragod district of Kerala State, Dakshina Kannada and Udupi districts of Karnataka State.--Pavanaja (talk) 12:41, 6 September 2021 (UTC)

message: It seems (from the citations, as well as my experience looking for demographic data for cities) that the religion pie-chart is for the population of the district and not the city. I propose that either we shift it to the appropriate page, or remove it altogether. Thanks! Tanyasingh (talk) 09:47, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
