re:agiripalli narasimha kshetram

[Guest guest]

dear members of the bhakti-list& sree raghavakumar,

Thanks for your kind mail enquiring about the sobhanachala narasimhaswami

kshestram in agiripalli and made me to recollect my past.

before i get the detailed information about the vishanava kshetram from my

friends and write, let me give my past recollections of my child hood days

when i visited agiripalli many a time with my parents and my grand mother smt.

ranganayakammal native of nuzvid(during late 1940s and early1950s). we used to

stay with one smt rajammal second wife of sri vangipuram venketachari and she

used to arrange for the darsan of the deity. his first wife smt late

pankajammal was one of my paternal aunt. she had two sons namely late sri

vangipuram seshachari, engineer, settled in madras and venketa krishna

ramanujachari betrothed to one of samavedam families of guntur agraharam. late

sri seshachari had his early education at nuzvid under the strict control and

descipline of my father and my grand mother. he had two sons sri gopalakrishna

and sri druvanarayana. one of our bhaktar belongs to this family.

now coming to the keshtram agiripalli, it is about 20km from nuzvid and 30km

from vijayawada by road and the keshetram is situated at the hill near to

agiripalli village known as sobhanachalam- very picturesque, calm and

spiritual place. the deity is sri sobhanachala (vyagrah) lakshmi

narasimhaswami at the base of the hill, the incarnation of lord vishnu and at

the top of the hill is the deity of hara- sri malleswara swamy stays at about

750 steps above from the base. we used to make archana and harati and worship

the lord sObhanAchala swami.

further information will be given as soon as i collect a detailed information

shortly

continued..

hari Om

jairam
