Yoga Narasimha Temple at Velachery

[Guest guest]

Srimate Ramanujaya Nama:

Srimath Varavara Munaye Nama:

 

Dear Vaishnavas,

I had gone to India for a month-long

vacation. It was my real fortune that my folks had relocated to

Velachery, one of the popular suburbs of Madras. Not many realize

that there is a really beautiful temple dedicated to Lord Sri Yoga

Narasimha Swami. The main deity of Yoga Narasimhar is really

beautiful, the author personally feels that he is one of the most

beautiful deities he has ever seen. Narasimhar here is really big,

with his really wide, extremely gorgeous eyes, he can make many

"Uranga-Vizhi Dasar"s even today!! He is four-armed, with the two

front arms resting on his lap symbolizing his state of Yoga. Supposed

to be a very powerful deity, the author was informed by one of the

bhattars that Lord Sri Narasimhar chose this place to rest in his

Yogic posture.

 

The temple is very easily accessible by

any mode of transport. Situated on the Velachery Main road, there is

a bus-stand located less then 100 yards from the temple, all sorts of

Metro buses (normal, express, etc..) stopping there.

 

I request all the adiyaars in this forum

residing abroad to make it a point to visit this temple and seek the

blessings and grace of Swami Yoga Narasimhar, the next time they get

to visit India. The adiyaars living in Madras should visit (or rather

rush to!!) the temple definitely.The bhattars are real nice and

knowledgeable, infact one of the bhattars is a PG in Mathematics, and

he is doing seva at the temple out of his own interest.

 

If I am right, the timings are the

following : 8.00 - 10.30 AM in the mornings, and 5.30 - 8.30 in the

evenings.

 

If interested, the Vaishnavas in the forum

can peruse the following link:

I shall scan and upload the picture of the

Moolavar in another mail.
