వివరణ
English: The Sri Lakshmi Narasimha Swamy temple, also known as the Prahlada Varada temple, is located in Lower Ahobilam, Nallamala hills, Andhra Pradesh (the Eastern Ghats). It is about 60 kilometers southeast of Nandyal town (NH 40), 100 kilometers northeast from Tadipatri, and 130 kilometers southeast from the city of Kurnool, Andhra Pradesh.
  • It is one of the temples in Ahobilam, Andhra Pradesh – a major historic South Indian pilgrimage site consisting of 10 Narasimha temples (the other nine are in the surrounding hills called the Upper Ahobilam). These are mentioned in the Vaishnavism-related Sanskrit Puranas and the Tamil texts such as the Kancimahatyma as the Navanarasimha-kshetra pilgrimage site. The site is particularly important to Tamils and Telugu speaking Hindus, as the tradition links this site to Kanchipuram mathas and education centers.
  • All the temples here are dedicated to the Narasimha avatar of Vishnu in the context of Prahlada–Hiranyakasipu mythology, one of the legends behind the Hindu festival of Holi. Per the regional legends, the entire story of man-lion avatar plays out between sites in Tamil Nadu and Ahobilam in Andhra Pradesh. The Vishnu avatar kills the demon-king hiding in Ahobilam, and thereby Vishnu protects and saves Prahlada from religious persecution.
  • The man-lion Narasimha avatar of Vishnu is ancient, and is found in the Brahmana layer of the Vedas (c. 900 BCE).
  • The temples in Ahobilam and Nallamala hills have roots in 10th to 12th-century Kakatiya period, with the oldest layer attributed to the Reddis, whose inscriptions over three centuries repeatedly state that they were from the Sudra caste and devout Hindus. As regional governors of a prosperous region under the Kakatiya kings, they built major spectacular temples in their own territory in Telangana and also sponsored minor temples and mathas (monasteries) outside of their territory such as those in Ahobilam in what is now Andhra Pradesh.
  • The temples in Ahobilam were damaged in the Deccan wars between newly forming Muslim Sultanates and older Hindu kingdoms by the early 16th-century. Ahobilam came under Vijayanagara Empire control in the 16th-century, and the temples underwent major reconstruction. After the fall of the Vijayanagara Empire, the temples were again vandalized.
  • Ahobilam remained in ruins and decaying during the Nizam rule, with no state support. During the colonial era, the 19th-century British scholars and archaeologists rediscovered them in a state of ruin and neglect with the forest overgrowing over the Ahobilam temples. They recognized their significance and the first photographs and field reports were published in the second half of the 19th-century. After 1947, and particularly after the mid 1990s, the temples have been cleaned, restored and developed as a tourism and pilgrimage site with the state government protection.
  • The Sri Lakshmi Narasimha temple in Lower Ahobilam consists of an east-facing sanctum, antarala, major mandapas with numerous pillars and subshrines on the north and south of the main temple. To the north of the main sanctum for Narasimha is a parallel shrine for Lakshmi.
  • The temple has two gopuras, aligned with each other. These were added post-Vijayanagara era.
  • There are several inscriptions in the temple, the earliest of which is from 1515 CE at the entrance of the temples complex. These epigraphs help attribute this temple to king Acyutaraya. They also help establish the destructive impact of the Deccan wars prior to the 16th-century, the reconstruction efforts in the 16th-century, and the role of Ahobilam matha in the reconstruction process.
  • One of the mandapa here is almost a copy of the destroyed Vitthala temple in Hampi region.
  • The temple includes numerous reliefs and statues, including those for Rama, Sita, Hanuman, Vekantesvara, Devi and others.
  • This temple shows evidence of intentional damage after the 16th-century. Many parts of the temple continue to be restored.
