Origin of Hemmaragala – as a Name
There is No perfect evidence for the existence of the name Hemmaragala, but there are ancient stories for the name to exist.

1. Once upon a time this region ruled by a feudal lord by name Bheemappanaika. He had 16 Daughters and wished for a male child but his wife delivered again a female. So she prayed Sri Venugopaala swamy and left of the baby infront of the god. By the time Bheemappanaika came to temple the child had turned in to male. The face facing towards became Hedathale and the legs towards became Hemmaragala( Heamapuri).
2. Once Koundinya Maharshi visited to Hemapuri village which was almost a lake. He closes this place for meditation and blessed the place to grow and develop like the Trees surrounding the lake which was huge in size. So the name as Hemmaragala.( Hemmara means big Tree in vernacular language.)
3. Once a Demon existed in this village, he was Killed by a saint and his head was parted from his body . The Place where the head was fallen called as Headathale and the place where body was fallen is known Hemapuri and it became as Hemmaragala.

Like this there are many stories giving evidence to origin of name Hemmaragala. As Sri Venugopalaswamy was statued by Sri Koundinya Maharshi, it is Also called as “Koundinya Maharshi Kshetra ”.

Holycows ( Kaamadhenu) are there on either sides of Sri Venugopala, with Adishesha on head, hence it is also called by the name of “Govardhana Kshetra”.

The third rulers of Hoysala Veeraballaala were the commander of this region . Bheemappanaika, Manchedanayaka and Perumaladevanatyaka were the subsidiary ruler of Hoysala. They were responsible to conduct daily rituals of the lord. For this in 1298 A.D. they donated their land for the construction of the temple.

The Chola King who one ruled this region had 12 Female children and wished for a male child in the lord Venugopala then the lord appeared in the dream of king. The next day queen again gives birth to baby girl. This makes the king very angry and he criticizes the queen badly , bitterly moved by this the queen promises infront of the god to commit suicide if the baby girl born would not turn into boy the next day.

As a miracle the next day in the brahmi lagnam the child turns into male. Witnessing this the queen with love and devotion calls the god “Huchhu Gopala”. For this as thanks giving the Chola Maharaja ( King)made the stone floaring to the Kalyaani.

It is said that Huchhu Gopala is the folk pronounciation of “Utsaca Gopala” .
The King of Yaduvamsha of Mysore, Sri Kantirava Narasimha Raja Wodeyar, who need a male child for his succession prayed here in front of the lord and had a male birth. Rejoicing this he named his son after the lords name as Sri Mummadi Krishna Raja Wodeyar. This Shows the lords divinity everywhere.
