Spiritual relationship between Simhachalam & Mantralayam (in the context of Akshaya Thruteeya)

Image
Sri GuruRaajo Vijayate There was a query at my Twitter handle https://twitter.com/bhargavasarma Q. I see chandanam is offered to Raghavendra swamy in Mantralayam. Is there any relationship between Simhachalam and Mantralayam. (in the context of Akshaya Thruteeya) A. My answer... According to Kshethra Mahaatmya, #Simhachalam temple is believed to be in existence since the days of Krutha Yuga. This unique and combined form of Lord Vishnu’s two incarnations’ viz. VaraAha and Naarasimha (both belonging to Krutha Yuga) got manifested at this place, as per prayers & request (wanted to have darshan of Vishnu’s dual avatharas) of #Prahlada for whose sake Lord #Vishnu incarnated as #Narasimha . According to Sthalapuraana, Prahlada was the first person to construct a temple for the Deity and conduct rituals at Simhachalam. Mantralaya GuruSaarvabhouma Sri #RaaghavendraSwamy is an incarnation of #Parhlada . Even otherwise Shastra says, on the day of Akshaya Thruteeya Lord V...

  Shankukarna   took his second birth as Bahlika Raja in Dwapara Yuga and was born in Kuru Vamsa. He was the son of Pratipa and brother of Shantanu (father of Bheeshmaachaarya). Bahlika was a great devotee of Lord Sri Krishna, but still had to associate with Kouravas in the Kurukshetra war because of his alliance with Bheeshma and Dhritharastra. BAhlIka was a very pious king in dvApara yuga, due to circumstances beyond his control he ended up fighting against the pAnDavas. He wanted to die at the hands of BhIma so that he could take future births and serve him (Hanuma-Bheema-madhva) and so challenged him to a fight, though BhIma was reluctant to hurt a devotee of the Lord. He was ultimately slained in the war at the hands of Bheemasena (Vaayu Avathara) in the divine presence of none other than Lord Sri Krishna. Shankukarna is Vishnu parivaara Devatha, Padmakalpa Srishti, having visesha Vaayu saannidya whose lineage is our beloved Sri GuruRaayaru (Mantralaya Guru Saarvabhouma ...

Had Prahlada Raayaru been selfish and returned back to Vaikunta when he was called by none other Bhagavantha in the form of Lord Narasimha what would have happened?   पूज्याय राघवेंद्राय सत्यधर्मरताय च। भजतां कल्पवृक्षाय नमतां कामधेनवे॥ But, Prahlada Raayaru didn't do that. He politely refused and instead preferred to stay back on earth propagating the divine culture and bhakti of ParamaAtma SriManNarayana. Sri Prahlada Rayaru is Bhakti-Vibhootiroopa of Bhagavanta; Sri Krishna says in Bhagawadgita that He is Prahlada among the devoted; He is one of the greatest devotees of Vishnu; Parama Bhaagavatottama; He (Shankukarna) is Vishnu Parivaara Devata having visesha Vaayu aavesha. Sri Guru Raayaru is an incarnation of Bhakta Prahlada (Prahlada Raayaru) whose Apratima Vishnu Bhakti has been mentioned by Sri Madhvacharya in his scripts; ShankukarNaakhyadevastu  bramhashapaachcha bhootale | Prahlaad  iti vikhyaato bhoobhaar kshapaNE ratah | sa eva  R...
