Redirecting you to learning platform...
Tulunada Mahathme is a cultural and educational platform dedicated to preserving the spiritual and traditional heritage of Tulunadu.
Tulunadu is known for its deep-rooted traditions such as Daiva Aradhane, Bhoota Kola, temple customs, Yakshagana, folklore, and oral history. These traditions are not just rituals but living expressions of faith, values, and community life. Our aim is to present this knowledge with respect, clarity, and authenticity.
A major focus of Tulunada Mahathme is the education and promotion of the Tulu language, including spoken Tulu and the traditional Tulu script. Through easy-to-understand learning content and articles, we support students, devotees, and researchers in understanding and practicing the language.
Tulunada Mahathme also serves as a community space for Tulunadigas across the world. We encourage cultural learning, discussion, and participation to strengthen identity and unity among generations.
Driven by devotion, learning, and service, Tulunada Mahathme is a humble effort to protect, share, and pass on the spiritual and cultural wealth of Tulunadu.
Let us preserve and celebrate the glory of Tulunadu together.
