Although I have visited Yadagirigutta several times, I have only performed sEva to this unique rUpam of Sri LakshmiNarsimhan once, as the sannidhi of Sri GhandabErunda is located in a somewhat inconspicuous location, a crevice just adjacent to and underneath the Anjaneya Sannidhi. If I recall correctly, GhandabErunda has the head of lion like our SingapirAn, but has the body of a snake and the wings of a bird. Scholars in ThirunArAyanpuram (Melkote) are working with some European scholars to study the origins of the mysterious rUpam of the Lord, and have found images of Him all over the world, even as far west as North America, where He is referred to by Native American Tribes as Pheonix, the winged god of fire. To get a more detailed answer, though, I am forwarding your question to members of the Bhakti List and to HH Sri Tridandi Jeear Swamy's Question and Answer forum, JetUSA. I am looking forward to learning much on this topic. Ramanuja Dasan, Mohan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
