Mirle is a village in the southern state of Karnataka, India.[2][3] It is located in the Saligrama taluk of Mysore district.
When persecuted by the Chola king Kulottunga, Ramanujacharya is said to have fled the Chola country and first stayed at Vahnipushkarini, the place now known as Mirle from where he moved on to Saligrama.[citation needed]
