Kanaka Dasa
Kaginele is famous for Kanaka Dasa, who is venerated as a saint by the Kuruba Gowda community. In addition to poems and songs he wrote about philosophy and social issues and worked as a social reformer in the village. A Krishna temple in the village, the Keshava, is dedicated to his family god and contains a statue of Kanaka Dasa.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
In 2004, the Karnataka state government decided to protect his works and monuments. Hence, the Kaginele Kanaka Guru Peetha (temple) was built. The architecture is similar to most temples in the state, with sculpted figures and idols.[1]
Shri. Beerendra Swamiji organized a function in 2005, encouraging people from Karnataka to share in his vision of developing Kaginele as a Maha Samstana. This resulted in the creation of the Shri. Kanakadas Kaginele Kshetra spiritual and devotional center plus an educational institute for poor local children.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
