&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Gayakarna&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; ([[IAST]]: Gaya-karṇa, r. c. 1123-1153 CE) was a ruler of the [[Kalachuris of Tripuri|Kalachuri dynasty]] of Tripuri in central India. His kingdom was centered around the Chedi or Dahala region in present-day [[Madhya Pradesh]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gayakarna married Alhanadevi, a granddaughter of the [[Paramara]] king [[Udayaditya]], which led to peace between the two kingdoms. However, he lost some territory to the [[Chandela]] king [[Madanavarman]]. The [[Kalachuris of Ratnapura|Kalachuri vassals at Ratnapura]] declared their independence during his reign.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Reign ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gayakarna succeeded his father [[Yashahkarna]] as the Kalachuri king.{{sfn|V. V. Mirashi|1957|p=495}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gayakarna seems to have lost some of his northern territory to the [[Chandela]] king [[Madanavarman]]. The [[Mau, Uttar Pradesh|Mau]] inscription of Madanavarman&amp;#039;s minister Gadadhara states that the king fled on listening Madanavarman&amp;#039;s name. The Chandelas seem to have captured the northern part of [[Baghelkhand]], as suggested the discovery of Madanavarman&amp;#039;s coins at [[Panwar, Sidhi|Panwar]] in this region.{{sfn|R. K. Dikshit|1976|p=135}}{{sfn|Sisirkumar Mitra|1977|pp=112-113}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The [[Kalachuris of Ratnapura|Ratnapura Kalachuri branch]], whose kings had earlier served as vassals of the Tripuri Kalachuris, declared its independence during Gayakarna&amp;#039;s reign. Gayakarna sent an army to reduce the Ratnapura chief [[Ratnadeva II]] to submission, but it was defeated.{{sfn|V. V. Mirashi|1957|p=495}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Personal life ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gayakarna married Alhanadevi, a daughter of the [[Guhilas of Medapata|Guhila]] king Vijayasimha. Her mother Shyamaladevi was a daughter of the [[Paramara]] king [[Udayaditya]]. This marriage led to peace between the Paramaras and the Kalachuris.{{sfn|V. V. Mirashi|1957|p=495}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Because of Alhanadevi&amp;#039;s patronage, the [[Pashupata Shaivism|Pashupata Shaivite]] religious leaders rose to prominence in the Kalachuri kingdom.{{sfn|V. V. Mirashi|1957|p=495}} Gayakarna&amp;#039;s &amp;#039;&amp;#039;rajaguru&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (royal preceptor) was Shakti-shiva.{{sfn|R. K. Sharma|1980|p=84}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gayakarna was succeeded by his sons [[Narasimha (Kalachuri dynasty)|Narasimha]] and [[Jayasimha (Kalachuri dynasty)|Jayasimha]] one after another.{{sfn|V. V. Mirashi|1957|p=495}}&lt;br /&gt;
