Igguthappa Igguthappa is an important deity for the people of Kodagu, especially of the Kodava people and Kodagu Arebhashe gowdas, and is known as their Lord of rains and crops. He is also their ''Maha Guru'' (chief preceptor). His main shrine, known as Paadi Igguthappa is in Kakkabe, Kodagu, Karnataka, India. The temple, located atop a hill in a forested area in Kakkabe, has been in existence since 1153. ==Mythology==
Legend has it that in ancient times from what is now Kerala arrived seven celestial children.〔 They were siblings, six brothers (including Igguthappa) and one sister. The first 3 brothers stayed back in Kerala in and around what is known as Kanjirath village, in Tali Paramba. The eldest brother was known as Kanyaratappa (Kanyarat was a name for Kanjirath), the second was Thiruchembarappa and the third was Bendru kolappa, known by the names of the villages they settled down in and where temples were built for them. The temples built for the three brothers are now famous in Kannur in Kerala. The temple of the first brother is now famous as the Rajarajeshwara Temple in Tali Paramba. The Trichambaram Temple of the second brother is now famous as the Krishna temple in Taliparamba. The third temple is well known as the Vidyanatha temple of Kanjirangad. The remaining three brothers with their sister moved towards Kodagu. The fourth brother Igguthappa took base at Malma in Kodagu and a temple was built for him at Paadi naad. The fifth brother moved to Paloor in Kodagu where a temple was built for him. It became known as the Mahalingeshwara temple. Their sister who was called Thangamma settled down in Ponnangala village, near Kakkabe, where a shrine was built for her and so is now known also as Ponnangala Thamme. The last brother Pemmayya moved further south and moved into what is now as Waynad in Kerala. Along the Brahmagiri range at Thirunelli a temple now known as the Janardhana temple was built for him.
