Lakshmi Narasimha Swamy Temple Malakonda History
As per Legends, Lord Vishnu asked Goddess Lakshmi if she had anything in her mind. Goddess Lakshmi replied that the current existing Divya Kshetras were not easily accessible for the devotees and needs a lot of money to travel long distances. Goddess Lakshmi requested the Lord to manifest in a place which is accessible for the devotees. Lord Vishnu granted Goddess wish and ordered Vanamala to establish a Holy abode for his stay on the Earth. As instructed by the Lord, Vanamala transformed himself as a Hill Malakonda for the Lord’s stay. Lord Self manifested here with His Consort Lakshmi on top of Malakonda.
