நரசிம்ஹர் இருக்க கவலைகள்(பயம்) எதற்கு?
"நரசிம்ஹர் இருக்க கவலைகள்(பயம்) எதற்கு"! நாளை என்பதே நரசிம்மனுக்கு கிடையாது. அதாவது நிமிஷ நேரத்தில் வந்து போன அவதாரம் - ந்ருசிம்ம அவதாரம். "நரசிம்ஹா" என்று சொன்னவுடன் கவலைகள் நாளை என்றில்லாமல் இன்றே மறைந்துவிடும், ந்ருசிம்மனை சேவிப்பவர்கள் கவலையும் நாளை என்றில்லாமல் இன்றே மறைந்துவிடும் . இதுவே வேத வாக்கு.
ஜெய் ஸ்ரீ லக்ஷ்மி நரசிம்மா!!!
ஜெய் ஸ்ரீ லக்ஷ்மி நரசிம்மா!!!

Ramapuram Narasimhar:
Ramapuram near porur , once considered a suburb in chennai that was difficult to reach from the heart of city, has now become a crowded place, very much within city limits. It is therefore heatening to know that the very ancient temple for sri lakshmi narasimha perumal also known as ramapuram narasimhar located there, which was once in an extremely dilapidated condition, with hardly anyone visiting it is now in a flourishing state and the centre of active worship.
Temple history:
According to the sources connected with the history of this temple, it was originally constructed during the time of the pallava ruler, narasimhavarmanII in the 8th century. However, the pillars of the temple, especially those in the mandapa, point to this being a creation of the chola times, subsequent to the pallava era. Whatever be the exact antiquity of this temple, the fact remains that for a long time it remained neglected with many parts of the shrine in a dilapidated condition.
Luckily, enthusiastic devotees arranged for the renovation of this temple and the consecration (samprokshanam) was performed in 1983. the second samprokshanam was performed in 1994 when the flag staff(dhvajasthambam) was installed and the third samprokshanam was held in November 2007. the street leading to the temple has been known, from the Ancient history ancient times, as iyengar street, revealing that people of the srivaishnava community had settled here long bac. The entire area was known as brindaranya kshetra as there was a large tulasi garden here.
ARCHITECTURE:
The entrance to this temple by seeing Beautiful Lakshmi Narasimha with sitting posture in the gopuram, as well as the main shrine, faces east. Worshippers enter the temple through a second mandapa named Astalakshmi Mandapa or Dwajasthamba Mantapa, spacious mandapa with the dhvajasthabam, in front of which, directly facing the main shrine, is a tiny image of sri vainateya (Periya Thiruvadi) or garuda with palms together (anjali hasta).
Enshrined in the main sanctum is very powerful image of sri lakshmi narasimha perumal, here too he is seen with goddess lakshmi seated on his left thigh. His upper hands hold the counch (sankha) and discus (chakra). His lower left hand encircles the waist of the goddess while his right hand is in the posture of assuring his devotees that he will save them from all harms (abaya hasta). Sri lakshmi narasimha perumal wears a salagrama(Mala) garland of 38 salagramas, of which 25 are sri santanagopala saligramas and the rest are sri lakshmi narayana salagramas. The deity is enshrined under the very historic beautiful ananda vimana, which was constructed before centuries ago. The Thayar in this temple was so beautiful and having blessing face, named amirthavalli thayar, while seeing this deity face, we have feel that all our sorrows might be vanished. This name relate with the kurma avatara of vishnu, lakshmi came out from Sheeraapdhi(Milk Ocean) and got pick the amirtha from the Rakshasa's and give it to the Devas. And Bhaktha Hanuman will present with small in size but beautiful look. Here he is so special because he is with Periya periya perumaal (Lord narasimha).
