The Setlurs the Origin of the Setlur Family Is Deep in the Mists of Time. the Earliest Reference to the Setlur Name Occurs Arou The Setlurs The origin of the Setlur family is deep in the mists of time. The earliest reference to the Setlur name occurs around the 8th Century CE in the name of a disciple of Sri Nathamuni, who was the savant through whom the Naalayira Divya Prabandhams (4000 verses) of all the 12 Azhwaars was revealed to the world. The next reference to the Setlur name is available in the 11-12 Centuries from amongst the 74 Simhasanadhipatis (Chief Disciples) of Sri Ramunajacharya, who were enjoined by the Acharya to spread the Vedantic philosophy of Vishishtaadvaita. The family ancients seem to have migrated to the Kannada speaking areas along with Sri Ramanujacharya, first settling at Srirangapatna and subsequently in Mysore and Bangalore. The middle & latter latter part of the 18th Century CE were a turbulent period in the history of the Mysore Kingdom, with, first, Haider Ali usurping all powers from King Krishnaraja Wodeyar II, making him a titular ruler and subsequently Tipu Sultan usurping the throne itself. One of the people who were fighting to restore the throne to the erstwhile Royals of Mysore, led by the Dowager Queen, Maharani Lakshmi Ammanni, was Setlur Venkatachalaiengar. Setlur Venkatachalaiengar went, several times, as an ambassador to the East India Company on behalf of the Dowager Maharani, seeking help in overthrowing Tippu. On the defeat and death of Tipu in 1799, the Kingdom of Mysore was restored to the child King Krishnaraja Wodeyar III. Setlur Venkatachalaiengar had two sons named Tirumalachar ( Kotwal Timmappaiengar) and Shingrachar (Bakshi Shingaiengar). These names are available in a copper plate inscription on the door frame of the Sannidhi of Sri Cheluvaraya Swamy at Melkote (Tirunarayanapuram). This Inscription gives the names of two generations before Bakshi Shingaiengar. The younger of the brothers, Bakshi Shingaiengar started his career as Tehsildar of the Chittoor province in the then Madras Presidency. During his tenure there, the administration of the Tirumala/Titupati temples were his responsibility, which he discharged with pious and sincere diligence. There is a family lore that, on the day he passed away in Bangalore, he was seen entering the Tirumala Temple and never came out. His devotion to Srinivasa Perumal was such. Even today, the two 3 tiered hanging lamps made of silver which are continuously lit and maintained in the sanctum sanctorum(also known as Mysore lamps), were Bakshi Shingaiengar’s offering to his Kula as well as Ishta Devatha Swaroopa. He, subsequently, moved to the Mysore Services, first, as Anche Bakshi (Head of the Postal Department) and then as Aramane Marammat Bakshi (Engineer in Chief of the Palace Maintenance Department). While returning to Mysore from Chittoor, Bakshi Shingaiengar got pratishtha done of a small Murthy of Lord Srinivasa with Sri and Bhoo Devis, at the Garbhagrha at Tirumala. Worship was offered to this Murthy for 6 months and then brought in a palanquin to Mysore and subsequently to Bangalore. This Murthy is worshipped to this day at the Ramanuja Koottam at Gandhinagar, Bangalore. Bakshi Shingaiengar had three sons. The eldest son was S. Venkatarangaiengar. He was an Amildar(synonymous with the Collector/District Commisioner of today) retired from the Mysore Service. The other two sons were Shadagopa Ramanuja Iengar(Police Inspector) and Srinivas. S. Setlur (S.S.Setlur), Advocate in the High Courts of Bombay & Madras. S.S.Setlur was also, for a short while, a Judge on the Bench of the Chief Court of the Kingdom of Mysore. The practice of calling oneself with the surname of Setlur started with S.S.Setlur who was a leading advocate and jurist and whose learned commentary on the Mitakshara School of Hindu Law is even today considered a definitive one on that old Law Treatise of Vignaaneshwara. Bakshi Shingaiengar started many charitable acts in temples of the Mysore Kingdom and Madras Presidency. His eldest son, S. Venkatarangaiengar established a Trust on 20th November, 1893 (under the Trust Act of 1882) and named it as S. Venkatarangaiengar Charity Society, to carry forward these charitable acts. This Trust continues, to this day, to carry out some the Charitable acts started by Bakshi Shingaiengar and institutionalised by S. Venkatarangaiengar. Over the 127 years of its existence, the Trust, since its establishment in 1893, underwent huge upheavals due to the political and administrative shifts that happened in the country. The Trust had been endowed with enormous tracts of Land, both, in the then Mysore kingdom as well as in the Madras Presidency. In course of time, post-Independence, with the the Inam Abolition Act and other Land Reforms, all the land in the Mysore region was taken away by the Govt. and redistributed to the farmers under the new laws. The lands in the Andhra Region around Tirupati (erstwhile Madras Presidency) were sold in the 1970s & 80s, by the then trustees out of fear of losing them completely under the Land Reforms, if implemented there. This put the conducting of the Trust activities under extreme stress as also the fact that, due to the several generational changes of the Trustees, the Institution went through challenging times, to put it very mildly. It is to be acknowledged that the previous generation of trustees did a very heroic job of persevering and continuing at least some of the very important Kainkaryams and Ubhayams. The present Trustees bow in gratitude to all the previous Trustees who battled all odds and kept the Institution alive. A special debt of gratitude is due to the elders in the family of the Founder (especially, the Centenarian, Smt. Ranganayakamma Setlur) for remembering all information of the Trust activities and passing it down to the present generation of Trustees. Whereas, the Trust Deed itself lists a whole lot of Kanikaryams and Ubhayams in different temples of both, the then Mysore Kingdom, as well as the erstwhile Madras Presidency, all of them could not be continued due to severe lack of resources. This site is an effort to provide all the family members and well- wishers of this Trust a platform to communicate and provide information about the Institution and its activities. We hope that this site serves its purpose to the fullest. A summary of the list of Kainkaryams and ubhayams as mentioned in the Trust Deed as well as those being conducted at the present time is given below: Kainkaryams/Ubhayams to be performed as per Schedule B of the Trust Deed Mysore Kingdom Region The Charities to be performed at different places in the erstwhile Mysore Kingdom (presently, the State of Karnataka): (I)Bangalore Ramanuja Kootam at the Charity House.

The water falls created by the rivers are a feast to the eyes of the outlookers. Historical bakground: Karnataka is a land with rich historical past. It has many pre-historic sites and most of them are in the river valleys. The pre-historic culture of Karnataka is quite distinct from the pre- historic culture of North India, which may be compared with that existed in Africa. 1 Parts of Karnataka were subject to the rule of the Nandas, Mauryas and the Shatavahanas; Chandragupta Maurya (either Chandragupta I or Sannati Chandragupta Asoka’s grandson) is believed to have visited Sravanabelagola and spent his last years in this place.

  • Folktales, Myths and Legends on Sculptors of South India
    Folktales, Myths and Legends on Sculptors of South India Balakrishna B.M. Hosangadi, Kannur University, India The Asian Conference on Literature 2017 Official Conference Proceedings Abstract History speaks on sculptures and silent on sculptors; whereas folktales take contradictory position towards this phenomenon. The folktales, Myths and legends on sculptors of south India narrate the dark shades of the life of sculptors. The present paper is intended to explore the tales from south India and hypothetically propose the four processes occurring in the narration of these stories: 1. Demonisation 2.Suppression 3.Marginalisation 4.Devaluation. So far, intensive studies have been carried out on the South Indian sculptures in scholarly texts. The major works have concentrated on the aesthetic elements of the sculptures rather than sculptors. So, finding the colossal void, present paper would discuss the narration. The paper is confined to the mythology of Thvastr-Vishwaroopa in Sanskrit and legends of Jakkana - Dankana in Kannada, Shambhu Kalkuda - Beera Kalkuda in Tulu, Raman Perunthacchan-Kannan Perunthacchan in Malayalam. These are the major mythological and legendary characters. The paper would use folktales, Myths and legends as primary sources and history works as secondary sources and it also would examine the adaptations of the folktales into theatrical, performing art form and cinematic works. A fraction between the history and the legend is observed: historians have started questioning the very existence of these legendary sculptors and at the same time, folklorists are placing the counter points. Reading the reflections over each other would provide the multiple layers of meanings. Keywords: Folktales on sculptors of south India, cultural study iafor The International Academic Forum www.iafor.org Introduction The irony of the history is in its selective narratives and total denial of the oral history on the grounds of evidences and plenty of questions are being raised against the historiography itself.
