Guest guest Report post Posted September 10, 2006 SrI: Dear Sri Lakshmanan Swamin: Mattaplli, the abhimana sthalam of Paramapadhavasi U.Ve. Sri Mukkur Laksmi Nrisimhachariar is near Vijayawada on the banks of Krishna River. Adiyen understands that this is one of the pancha nrisimha kshetram (Simhachalam, Yadagiri Gitta very close to Hyderabad), Panaka Nrisimha kshetram near Vijayawada, Nellore etc). To reach Mattapalli, one has to reach Kodad by bus, either from Hyderabad(200kms) or Vijayawada (99kms). From Kodad, one has to come to Huzoornagar (15kms) by bus & from there one has to reach Mattapalli by another bus. Mattappallli is about 150 kms. very close to Vijayawada The Moolavar is Sri Yogananda Nrisimhan. Thayaar is Sri Rajyalakshmi. Chenchulakshmi Thayaar is also present beside the moolavar. The sanctum sanctorium is inside a cave which extends upto the river Krishnaveni. The vimanam here is Brahmananda nilaya Vimanam. (information from "Google" and other sources) Adiyen had been to Yadgiri Gutta where three svayam vyakta Nrusimhan Bhagavans are there. Beautiful temple. vacaka: dosha: kshantavya: dAsan Srinivasan geelakshman wrote: > SrI: > > Dear Bhaghavatas: > > I request information on this kshetram.

Guest guest Report post Posted September 12, 2006 SrI: Dear Sri Sathakopan Swamin: adiyen thank you and all others who responded. I gave wrong title. The title of the book is "Mattappalliyil Malarndha Marai PoruL". As you mentioned Paramapadavaasi U.Ve. Mukkur Lakshmi Narasimhachariar has drawn parallels between the two kshetrams. The descriptions he has given are so vivid it makes the reader yearn to go this kshetram at once. They are so similar and so he declares Mattappalli is Ahobilam though they are miles apart. I need your help further. Sri Rama prayed to Sri Lakshmi Nrusimhar when he passed through Ahobilam. I am assuming 'Sri RamENa virachitam Sri Nrusimha Pancamrutha Stotram' was done at the Ahobilam. I am trying to help a gentleman who is doing research on Sri Rama's path in the South based on his geological knowledge of India at that time and Valmiki Ramayan. This researcher says it is not clear to him about the path Sri Rama took through the south of Vindhyaas and also through Ahobilam caves, through the present day Karnataka. Especially he is not clear about the caves occupied by Vali and Sugrivan which he says ought to be in Karnataka. I would be grateful if you or anyone in the group can give references to throw more light on this (books or internet sites) I will pass them on to this gentleman.
