Sri Vyasaraja was the favoured and respected Rajaguru of four emperors of historical Vijayanagar empire. Sri Vyasaraja was also the guru of the likes of Kanakadasa and Purandaradasa. Over five hundred years ago Sri Vyasaraja consecrated 732 idols of Hanuman throughout our bharatha desha.
Three avatars of Sri Vayu is clearly seen in this photo.
- bAladalli ganTe(Bell in the tail) – this clearly shows Sri Hanumantha devaru
- Kaiyalli Soungandika (Soungandhika flower)- this clearly shows Sri Bheemasena devaru
- Shike or Juttu- this clearly shows our Jagadguru Sri Madvacharya.
My dream is to discover the places of all 732 idols of Hanuman with its location so that it would be useful for the devotees to visit. This page is created mainly to serve this purpose. Fortunately, last month I had a dream of Sri.Vyasarajaru prathisthapana Kakkalur Sri Hanuman devasthana. I consider this as the blessing of Sri Vyasarajaru antharkatha Sri Prana devaru.
Let Sri Hanumantha devaru antharkatha Sri Lakshmi Varaha bless all of us always! Let him remove all our sins!
In the service of Sri Harih,
