Yoga Narasimhar Parthasarathy Temple, Triplicane




       Yoga Narasimhar Sannadhi of Parthasarathy  Temple. This  is a separate  shrine facing West with separate Kodi Maram and Bali  Petam.  Until the turn of 19th century this was given to  Vadakalai Iyengars by East  India Company in view of the dispute on the  Sampradayam of worship  with  Thengalai  Iyengars. Moolavar  Yoga Narasimhar is in meditation and has been mentioned  by Thirumangai Alwar as "  Thellia  Singathi  Thevai  Tiruvallikeni  Kandene" in his Pasuram. The  street  outside has been  named  Thellia Singa Perumal  Koil Street  in the  name of  Utsavar.  The  shrine was renovated  in 1908 extensively with  granite stones by Parthasarathy  Iyengar.  The  26 pillared  mandapam outside the Sannadhi has been constructed in the  year 1912 by Raghavaiah  Chetty  charities along with public subscriptions at a  cost of  Rs.12000 .  Separate Brahmotsavam are held for  Yoga Narasimhar every year. The  Gopuram on the  west side  along with  main gopuram was renovated in 1898-99 for Maha Samprokshanam. The  devoties offer  Uppu and Milagu  at the  back of  the  Sannadhi to get rid of their problems .
