ಕಲಚೂರ್ಯರು ಬಿಜ್ಜಳ ಜಗಜ್ಯೋತಿ ಬಸವಣ್ಣನವರು Kalachoorya dinesty Bijjala king of #kalyana #BasavannanavaruThe rulers of the dynasty traced their origins to one #Krishna, who is said to have conquered #Kalinjar and #Dahala in present-day Madhya Pradesh (see #Kalachuris of Tripuri). #Bijjala, a viceroy of the dynasty, is said to have established the authority over #Karnataka after wresting power from the #Chalukya king #Taila III. #Bijjala was succeeded by his sons #Someshvara and #Sangama but after 1181 CE, the #Chalukyas gradually retrieved the territory. Their rule was short and turbulent and yet very important from a socio-religious point of view; a new sect known as the Lingayat or #Virashaiva sect was founded during these times in a time extent of 25 years.[1]
A unique and purely native form of #Kannada literature-poetry called the Vachanas was also born during this time. The writers of Vachanas were called #Vachanakaras (poets). Many other important works like #Virupaksha Pandita's Chennabasavapurana, Dharani Pandita's #Bijjalarayacharite and Chandrasagara Varni's Bijjalarayapurana were also written.
