  Temple History:
     
  Mangalore – now Mangaluru on the shores of the Arabian Sea was a desert earlier.  Drought enveloped the region.  Sages performing penance and people who were helpful to them suffered from starvation.  They sought the help of sage Agasthya.  He began penance on Varuna the God of rain.  A demon, Kumbasura by name caused troubles to the penance of the sage.  Bheema one of the Pandava brother only had the power to destroy the demon.  Lord Vinayaka took the elephant form carrying a weapon.  Seeing Bheema coming to have the weapon, the elephant dropped the weapon and fled away.  Bheema killed the demon with the weapon.
As the demon was destroyed with the weapon of Lord Vinayaka, while dying, he realized wisdom and died a pure soul.  The place became fertile with good rains.  Sages begged Lord Vinayaka that He should stay at the place where their grievances came to an end.  Lord obliged.  As Kumbasura was reformed in this place, it came to be known as Kumbasi.  The temple is in the Aane Gudde part of the place.  Aane Gudde means a hill, the home of Lord Vinayaka.
