Lord
Nrisimha at the Hastishaila caves took one more form of Nrisimha
and chased away the demons towards the West and stayed there as
yoga Nrisimha to ensure that they do not return. Since the Lord
resided here with Prithi(Pleasure) this Kshetra is called Vellukkai(Vel
- prithi - with pleasure)
Thaayaar - Vaelukkaivalli, Amruthavalli.
Theertham - Kanagasaras, Hemasaras.
