The processional deities of Sri Laxmi Narasimha Swamy, Laxmi Devi and Chenchu Laxmi were taken out in a colourful palanquin. The presiding diety of Sri Ahobila Mutt is Sri LakshmiNarasimha (also called Malolan). There are 9 Narasimha temples in Sri Ahobilam and the presiding Jeeyar (Azhagiya Singar) of the Sri Ahobila Mutt is considered to be the 10th Narasimha. The Supreme Lord took the avatar of Sri LakshmiNarasimha to protect the child Prahalada and his unshakeable faith in Sriman Narayana, and to destroy evil. The Lord in this Form is an instant grantor of the devotee’s prayers. The Moolavar and Utsavar Moorthies at the Temple are a divine sight to behold.

These are important days of  Brahmotsavam
