Once they entered the cave the family astonished to see Lord Narasimha Swamy along with his consorts Sreedevi and Bhoodevi (both are considered as Ubhayanancharis). Pleased with their devotion Lord Narasimha showed them the route to Madhugiri. The whole family prayed Ahobileshwara to show the route for Madhugiri. However after reaching there they were unable to find Madhugiri hill. They enquired about Madhugiri and finally reached Somagatta. He told about his dream to his family and all the family felt very happy. Pedda Narasimha Reddy felt very happy that Lord Narasimha Swamy blessed him with His Darshan him in the dream and for letting him know about the significance of Madhugiri temple. This place is very dear to me as Shaandilya Maha Rishi did penance for a long time". I am residing there under a huge stone inside a cave. While he was sleeping, Lord Narasimha Swamy appeared in his dream and blessed him saying that "I am very happy with your devotion towards me and there is no need for your family to come Ahobilam. Instead you all can get my darshan at a nearby place called Madhugiri at Somagatta. One night they reached a village named Puleru and decided to break their journey. Throughout the day they would continue the journey and in the nights they would rest at some convenient place. During the journey, they missed the route and instead of going towards North they traveled towards South. Lord Narasimha Swamy had some other grand plans for their family. One fine day he started his journey along with his family to Ahobilam. He requested him to offer all the valuables that were safely stored from many years in the name of Narasimha Swamy.įinally, Pedda Narasimha Reddy took a month’s permission from Penukonda King to visit Ahobilam with family. Pedda Narasimha Reddy's father told him that only he had a chance from all their 14 generations to visit Ahobilam. The journey was not easy as one has to cross the dense forests for many days and nights to reach Ahobilam. In those days, there were no proper roads and transportation to reach Ahobilam from Penukonda. But none of them were able to visit Ahobilam temple due to difficulties in reaching the place even though when they tried to visit many a time. His past 14 generations had a strong wish to visit Sri Ahobila Narasimha swamy (which is located in Kurnool district, Andhra Pradesh) and offer valuables from their earnings in their lives. Narasimha Reddy too had immense faith on Lord Narasimha Swamy. All his fathers and forefathers worshipped Sri Ahobila Narasimha Swamy from many ages. He used to work in the Penukonda Kingdom. In 14th century there lived an ardent devotee of Lord Narasimha Swamy in Penukonda named Pedda Narasimha Reddy.
