And
people who are relieved of their problems are visiting to offer this
ritual to the Lord, their number is ever growing and consuming
several mounds of jaggery. Everyday and throughout the year that
too. Scores of bhaktas visit everyday and huge quantities of Panaka
is offered. And the peculiar feature observed here is the absence of
any other image. Only Narisimha's icon - a Swayamvyakta is adorning
this Rock-cut temple and is adored with boundless arodur. Another
stunning fact discernable here is the absence of flies, or insects
of any kind, though jaggery is found in abundance, brought for
making Panaka.
Even
if seen with microscopic lens, none detect any irritating creature
creeping or flying in the vicinity. It is Lord's Mahima! That
mirrors His anantavatsalya!! And marks him out as a Mokshapradatha
first and last!!! There by it establishes that his ways are
incomprehensible to the test-tube scientists, and inexplicable by
the book drunk scholars. To the bhaktas like Prahlad, it is as clear
as amalaka on the palm. They explain and enthrall the listeners for
hours and days if attendance is given. Another odd feature
observable in the Garbhagriha is that there is no passage for the
huge quantities of Panaka to drain it out. Where does it go and how?
Look! that entire area is always dry and hot? Nobody knows except
ONE and that greatest alone knows how to draw HIS children to HIS
feet by means best. It is again a mystery to all but not to bhaktas.
Let us now descend down the flight of steps, numbering 500 to the
foot of hill to feast our eyes with several temples dedicated to
gods and liberal endownments made by the astika- mahaprabhus from
time to time.
