Varaha Lakshmi Narasimha Archana — Simhachalam Temple, Visakhapatnam
What This Remedy Does
Varaha Lakshmi Narasimha Archana at Simhachalam Temple, near Visakhapatnam, is the chanting of the deity's names with flowers or kumkum, offered in your name. The temple's priests perform it with up to four names and your gotra in the sankalp. A temple receipt or WhatsApp confirmation tells you when the archana has been offered.
What is Varaha Lakshmi Narasimha Archana?
In an archana, the priest chants a deity's names, most often the 108 names or ashtottara. With every name comes an offering of flowers or kumkum. It is the seva South Indian temples offer more than any other. Because the devotee's name, gotra and nakshatra (birth star) are said in the sankalp, the archana is offered on their behalf. At Simhachalam the names are offered to Varaha Lakshmi Narasimha, a form of Vishnu.
Why devotees book it
- A prayer for the protection of the family, offered to Varaha Lakshmi Narasimha in faith
- A prayer before an exam, a journey, an interview or a new venture
- Blessings on a birthday or anniversary, with the person's birth star in the sankalp
- Devotion and thanksgiving to Vishnu in his combined Varaha and Narasimha form
When to book
Devotees traditionally offer an archana on the deity's weekly day, on a birthday by birth star or on a temple festival day. Saturdays and Ekadasi are also good days to book. Chandanotsavam, when the deity's true form is seen, is a temple festival and not a seva that can be booked. Once you book, the date is confirmed with you on WhatsApp.
About Simhachalam Temple
The Varaha Lakshmi Narasimha Temple stands on Simhachalam hill near Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh. Its deity unites two forms of Vishnu, Varaha and Narasimha. Through the year the image is covered in sandal paste, and its true form is seen only at Chandanotsavam, in spring. An archana here lets devotees honour this combined form of Vishnu, with their own names spoken in the sankalp.
