Once when Swamy was giving SRIMAD BAGAVATHA UPANYASAM in Bangalore, a devotee from Malleswaram in Bangalore came and presented the YAGN~A MOORTHY ( a tiny silver, intricately carved idol of LORD LAKSMINARASIMHA IN SITTING POSTURE WITH THAYAR MAHALAKSMI SEATED ON HIS LEFT LAP ) stating that in his dream he was directed to deliver the idol to Sri Swamy who was rendering discourses in Bangalore. !!!.Īs assured by the old man, Sri Swamy started getting calls from various places for conducting upanyasams without virtually any break.
Sri Swamy could not trace the old man in spite of searching all over. Having said this, the old man went into the Garbagruha and vanished. When Sri Swamy expressed his helpless financial position, the old man assured Sri Swamy that from then on he would get name and fame and all that is necessary to perform the Yagn~as and although THE LORD WOULD OFTEN GIVE TESTING TIMES, Sri Swamy would not have any problems. He also detailed the Sri Nrisimha Maha Yagn~am to Sri Swamy. Having partaken the Panakam, the old man blessed Sri Swamy on his head with the small stick and narrated (UPADESAM) SRI NRISIMHA ANUSHTUP MAHA MANTRAM in Sri Swamy's ears and enquired as to when Sri Swamy would give HAVIS etc. On a NRISIMHA JAYANTHI day when Sri Swamy was returning with the PANAKAM, a very old SRI VAISHNAVA with URDHVA PUNDRAM and a small stick in his hand, sought the PANAKAM to quench his thirst. Since he could not afford the 25 paise bus charge, he used to walk from Vijayawada to Mangalagiri, a distance of more than 12 kms. Subsequently, he started visiting the temple daily to offer Panakam. He realised that the LORD in the dream was none other than the LASKHMI NARASIMHA at MANGALAGIRI. Sri Swamy woke up suddenly from the sleep. Sri Swamy followed them into the Garbagraha and saw the image of LORD LAKSHMI NARASIMHA's face partaking the PANAKAM. When Swamy followed his father towards the foot of a big hill, he was pleasantly surprised to see the serene and benevolent rUpam of HH Injimettu Srimad Azagiya Singar (42nd Jeer of Sri Ahobhila Math) with the Trithandam and Abhaya Muthirai. When Sri Mukkur Swamy was residing at Vijayawada, at a time when he was not financially well off, he had a dream in the early morning one day, when his father late Sri U Ve Srinivasachariyar Swamy (who had attained Acharyan Thiruvadi sixteen years earlier) beckoned Sri Swamy " SIla" (pet name of Swamy) directing him to follow him. A selfless man, a noble soul and greatest Nrisimha upasakar earth has ever found. Sri Mukkur Swami is a messenger of LORD NRISIMHA who came to earth only for the welfare of the society. Expound on this to those who listen with devotion. Do not share this information to those who do not have devotion in me. Since it (yag~na) is my volition, do not have any worries. Including the 16 years of kali yuga, 32000 yag~nas for each of the 32 nrusimha bhijaksharam) would be conducted in 1116 years. Yag~nas were conducted for 360,720,and 20 years in krutha, tretha and dwapara yugas. All of you have also inherited such divine names. In krutha yuga He (Sri Swami)was named Vishwambharan: In tretha yuga Sri ugrasimhan: in Dvapara yugam Sri gunabhadran. But for my volition, you would not be privileged to participate in the yag~ya. He (Sri swami) has been the adhvaryau since Krutha yuga: you have also been assisting him since then. It originated in Krutha yuga and continues till date. This yag~yam is not associated with kali yuga alone. I,The lord who dwells at Mattapally since not Krutha yuga, have ordained Mukkur Lakshminarasimhan to conduct Sri swathi maha yag~yam purely for the welfare of the universe.
I am not too sure about the year of this Avirbhaavam quote in one of Swami's Pravachanam( discourse),Lord Nrisimha had taken an Avirbhavam (a trance)on swami.Here is what Lord nrisimha himself has said about Sri mukkur swami.
