Mooguru
is a village in the southern state of Karnataka,
India. It is located in the Tirumakudal Narsipur taluk
of Mysore district in Karnataka.
There
is a famous temple here for goddess Tripurasundari, also called as Thibbadevi.
Also,
the epic says, there resides the deity's better half, Lord Shiva and her sister
too. So, two temples, one each for Lord Shiva, and another for Thibbadevi's
sister also exists in this village.
During
this festival, goddesses from neighboring villages, who according to the priest
and villagers, are supposed to be sisters of goddess Thibbadevi are bought in
procession to Mooguru. Traditionally the sisters of goddess come to visit Sri Thibbadevi
and then, the procession is taken all around the village before bringing the
curtains down for the three-day Shri Thibbadevi jaatre.
