Yadagiri
Yadagirigutta,
near Bhongir on the Secundrabad - Kazipet (Warangal)
railroad is home to a hill temple enshrining the
Narasimha
incarnation of Vishnu
as Lakshmi Narasimha.
The temple:
The sanctum of this hill temple is a natural cavern on the hill.
Jwala Narasimha, Ghandabheranda Narasimha
(without an image) and
Yoga Narasimha are held in worship here, in
addition to a silver image of
Lakshmi Narasimha and a shrine to
Aandaalamma.
Two
particular rock formations in the wall of the sanctum cave are revered as
Jwala Narasimha
and
Yoga Narasimha
respectively. The Jwala Narasimha image resembles that of a serpent, while the
Yoga Narasimha image shows Narasimha seated in meditation.
This cave
temple is situated at a height of 300 feet on the hill, known as
Yadagiri.
At the foothills there is the Vaikuntha Dwara entrance.
At the temple entrance to the temple there is a
shrine to Hanuman and a gap in the rock, which is said to represent
Ghandabheranda Narasimha.
There is
also a temple to
Shiva
on the Yadagiri hill.
Legend
has it that the son of Rishyasringa by name Yadava meditated upon Vishnu here,
desiring a vision of three different forms of Narasimha. His wish was granted
and the hill came to be named after him as Yadavagiri, which in due course came
to be known as Yadagiri.
Local belief has it that worshipping here for a
period of 40 days would relieve devotees of incurable diseases.
