||Swayambhu Sri Kurma Narayana||

The sea must be churned for nectar. Once upon a time, Lord Vishnu was chased by the demons and Indra who were cursed by Durvasamaha. Seshasai Srimannarayana said to all the deities, “If you all want to be bright again, amrutam sweekara miram amrutha you should churn the milky water with the demons.”

Mahakurmavataram:

The gods made the Mandara mountain a mountain and ‘vasuki’ wrapped the Mahasarpa like a rope around it and started swimming in the sea. Because of those jerks, the milky ocean became turbulent and Mandaraparvatam was submerged in that ocean. Immediately Lord Vishnu appeared as Mahakurma, with the toughest armor and covering an area of ​​lakhs of yojanas. That Mahakurma lifted that mountain on his back and made it stand. That’s when the Mahakachhapam became a beautiful spindle of the Mandaraparvata until the sea crossing was completed. Seeing the divine form of Sri Kurmanarayana, the deities showered flowers.

Everyone is eagerly looking towards Mandara Parvatam for nectar. In the meantime, the world-destroying catastrophe called ‘Halahalam’ emerged with the speed of a cataclysm. He prayed to God to save him from that poison. Paramashiva kept that Kalakutavisha in his throat and became blue-throated.

Dhanvantari with “Amritakalasam”:

After that Uchchaishravam, Airavatam, Kalpavriksha, Kama Dhenu… Shrimahalakshmi… along with many other wonderful things and finally Adivaidya named “Dhanvantari” appeared holding “Amritakalasam”. Meanwhile, the demons stole the amrita kalash from Dhanvantari’s hand. But the tamasu demons were fighting with each other saying ‘Naku, Naku’.

In the meantime, Sri Mahavipu appeared in the form of Jaganmohi, like a golden lightning string, seducing everyone and took the amrita kalas in his hands as a gift. With her beauty, the beauty of the Valuchupula Vaiyaras awestruck everyone, saying, “Andari Aranga Amritham Panchipedata” and seated the Devas and the Ra’s in two rows separately. While sharing his. A demon called ‘Swarbhanu’ sat with the gods in the form of a transformation, anxious to see if the gods would get the amrita first. He got nectar. Observing this, the sun and moon winked at Mohini.

Jaganmohini disappears and Jagannayaka manifests as Vishnubhaga Vana and smashes the demon’s head with the Sudarshana chakra. Even though the demon’s head and body were separated due to having already swallowed the nectar, Lord Brahma gave them a place in the Navagraha mandala as ‘chayagrahas’ which became immortal. The head of ‘Swarbhanu’ is known as ‘Rahu’ and the body as ‘Ketu’. Rahuketus hold on to the sun and moon during eclipses with the belief that this destiny is due to the sun and moon. All the amazing moments of Samudramatha have come together and formed the ‘Nallagattu Srikurmaswamy Temple’.

(The black gut surrounding ‘Vasuki’ is Amruthakalasam). The sins of previous births are the sins of the present.
