Guest guest Posted May 6, 2002 Report Share Posted May 6, 2002 - The most definitive writeup on Ahobilam is the article by HH Injimetu Azhagiya Singar which appeared long back in Nrusimha Priya. - Sri Maadabhuushi Narasimhaa Chaaryulu's PhD topic was on Nrusimha KshEtrams and this should have tons of information about Ahobilam among other kshEtrams. Sri Devanathan of Ahobila Mutt or Sri Vijayaraghavan of Hyderabad should be able to provide more info on the materials covered therein. - Following are some of the other oft-cited references in the western world * Deborah Soifer " Beast and Priest " PhD dissertation U of Chicago, 1978. * A.C.Swain " A study of the Man-Lion Myth in Epics and Purana text " Phd Dissertation U of Poona, 1970. * R.M.
