    vast village with a population of 3389 people belonging to 786 families, has people from 16 different castes of Hindu community. Sri Chennakeshava temple Fifty three kilometres from Mysuru, there is a little known village with huge historical significance and said to have great mythological belief by name Dharmapura in Hunsur taluk. And over a 1000 year old Sri Chennakeshava temple with hoysala architecture, and over a 700 year old Shiva temple said to be built by Hoysala rulers are situated in the village. People of this village till date, believe and claim that only truth, righteousness that is “Dharma” alone, and Hindu community, alone sustain here. And this entire village is filled with innumerable astounding beliefs. Although there are no scientific proofs, Villagers object them to be called as superstitious beliefs, and they have incidents as examples for each of their beliefs. Among many such beliefs, one of the main one villagers claim is that strangely buffalos don’t survive in this village. And villagers also claim that, muslims fear to stay in the village as they either do not prosper or do not survive at all in this village. “There are 1600 cows, 130 goats and 400 sheeps in the village but not a single buffalo. It is also said that even pigs don’t survive here,” says Veterinarian in the village Dr Subramanya H K. “In 1985, while government distributed 300 buffaloes to villagers, each one died in different ways within a fortnight. Our own buffalo got stuck in sludge and died. Many villagers brought buffaloes to test if the fact was true, but none have survived so far,” recalls Somanna M a villager. A vast village with a population of 3389 people belonging to 786 families, has people from 16 different castes of Hindu community. All of them are said to be living with good co-ordination. But not a single non Hindu family especially from Muslim community is found here. “Rich Muslims who have come here for business, have lost all the wealth and have left village debt ridden, though villagers co-operated well with them. Few years ago a Hindu boy was in love with a Muslim girl. And the girl got converted to Hindu community, and the couple got married. Yet they moved to different village for livelihood. A muslim man who came here for some work and stayed overnight few years ago, was found dead in the morning. So Muslims fear to reside here, and even if a muslim comes they return back during the day time, they don’t stay overnight in Dharmapura,” village leader, R Vishwanath.
