YADAGIRI

On the left of the passage, there is a Peetha where special Pujas are performed. At the end of the cave, there are the actual images of the Lord. We see their two rocks fastened to each other and forming a vertical cup of about one -foot between them. On the other side of the rock, we can see the image in the shape of a serpent head and ending like its tail. This is said to be the aspect of God known as Jwala Narasimha, the second of the manifestations of Lord Vishnu to Yadavas. Popular tradition has it that a divine serpent still moves about the image.
