Nambi Narayana temple was renovated by Ramanuja during his exile from Srirangam, the idol and the sanctum is said to be over 5500years old and dates back to the Dwapara Yuga. Ramanuja built new mandapas outside the sanctum and renovated and consecrated the temple. At the end of the Dwapara Yuga, in the Sura Sura war, Indra was afflicted with Brahmma Hathi Dosham. To liberate himself from this, he undertook penance and invoked the blessings for Lord Vishnu. He was directed to install 5 Narayana Idols in this region to liberate himself from his dosham. Thondanur is the first and the oldest of the Pancha Narayana Kshetrams. The others in this region being – Cheluva Narayana at Melkote, Keerthi Narayana at Thalakkadu, Veera Narayana at Gadag and Sowmya Narayana at Belur.
Belief is that one will attain Vaikunta Moksham if he visited the Pancha Narayana Kshetram.
Centuries ago, this place was referred to as Yadava Narayana Chaturvedi Mangalam. Inscriptions refer to Veera Narasimha, the Hoysala ruler leading his kingdom with Dorasamudram as his capital and granting 64 gadayaanas to the people of Thondanur Agrahara for undertaking any repairs to the temple.
The great Vaishnava Seer Ramanujacharya sought asylum in Thonnur at the residence of one of his disciples Thondanur Nambi, who received Ramanuja with all respects. The Jain ruler Bittideva’s daughter was possessed of ghost and none could cure her from the troubling ghost. Then Thondanur Nambi visited the palace and told the king that Ramanuja would drive out the ghost and Ramanuja succeeded in relieving the daughter from the evil spirit. The Hoysala dynasty king Bittideva, was attracted by Ramanujacharya's teachings and embraced Vaishnavism to become his follower. Ramanuja renamed the king as ‘Vishnuvardhana’. Because of Ramanuja’s stay, Thonnur virtually became the second capital of Hoysalas in those days. Legend has it that the temple of Nambi Narayanaswamy got this name as Lord Narayana graced Nambi, a disciple.This temple was constructed in the 12 th century AD during the regime of Vishnuvardhana to commemorate his victory over the Cholas at Talakadu. According to an inscription, Suragi Nagaiah, one of the generals of King Vishnuvardhana, built this shrine. The temple has a Navaranga, a Maharanga Mantapa, an Ardha Mantapa, a Shukanaasi, a Garbha Griha (Sanctum Sanctorum) and a big Paataalankana. Fifty pillars adorn the Maharanga Mantapa. The Paataalankana has 40 octagonal-faced pillars. 45 feet high Garudagamba lies in front of this shrine.

Halthi Mallikarjuna Cave Temple Nagamangala Tourism Mandya Tourism Karnataka Tourism | trek
Halthi ( ಹಾಲತಿ ) Mallikarjuna Cave Temple at Nagamangala, Mandya, Karnataka. Mallikarjuna cave temple is part of Nagamangala tourism, Mandya tourism and Karnataka tourism. Halthi is a small village temple is located above the small hill, after a trek one can reach the Mallikarjuna Cave temple.
The Cave temple is locked usually, so best contact the Pooraji of the Temple who resides in the village before climing the hill. The temple Archakar is Mahadeva his contact number is 9731415517. The Shiva Linga in the cave is a naturally formed Linga, Known as Udbhava Moorthy. Halthi has a rich association with two Mythological figures. One is Parashurama and the other being the Pandavas.
The Village gets the unique name of halthi due to the situation of Parasuramas axe slicing the side of the shiva linga, causing milk to flow down the hill into this area. Thus the name Halthi, which in Kannada refers to Haal as Milk. The place where the milk flowed down from the hill. Further ahead the milk flowed into the next village and formed the cream above the milk this village is known as Kendanahallil. Kene in kannada means the cream of the Milk. It is believed that Parasurama resided on this hill for many years in search of the cure for his curse of Killing his Mother. He had visited 100 shiva lingas and was to see 101 in order to be freed from his curse. During his stay here unable to find any direction, he requests a sage for assistance. The sage tells him to go on top of the hill and call out to shiva. When he does so, he finds a voice responding to his call but is unable to locate it. On closer observation he finds a bee entering a small opening in the hill. Being curious Parasurama starts digging open the hill using his axe. This is how the cave came into existence. Initially he is fully energised and digs a big opening and as he proceeds the opening starts decreasing to the bare minimum place required for a person to crawl and go in. finally his axe slices the side of the Linga causing the Milk to flow down the hill. On Darshana of this Linga, Parashurama is liberated of his curse. From here he heads to Kerala, where he throws his axe, which he had used to kill his Mother.
It is also said that the Pandavas resided at Halthi hill during their Vanavasa. The kalyani or pond on the hill next to the temple has water all through the year and the water is said to be clean and portable even during the worst droughts. This is a sacred pond and is quite deep, do not try to go in and do not pollute this water. There is a gopura on the way up the hill.
Inside the Mallikarjuna cave temple there is a statue of Nandi believed to be carved by Parashurama using his nails. The other two Nandi Statue are later additions by the devotees of the temple. Inside the main cave are two other caves. The cave on the left side ijs believed to lead to Melukote Dhanushkoti and people do go by walk through the left side cave towards Melukotes Dhanushkoti..The cave on the right is said to connect to Shivgange and Siddagange . This cave is guarded by a cobra at all times and hence cannot be accessed. If people come inside the temple with wrong intension then a cobra blocks the way to the exit of the main cave, not permitting the person to leave the temple. Also one more thing to keep in mind is, if people do not come to the hill with pure body and mind Such as if they consume non-veg food before coming to the temple, then there is belief that the bees attack them and does not allow them go further towards the temple.
Inside the cave all through the year Water continuous to fall on Shiva linga from the rocks above.
During rainy season the cave gets filled with water and no one can enter the cave. The worship of Shiva linga is stopped during this time. The water inside the cave increases so much that the water forms a waterfall from flowing from inside the cave, through the door and down the hill. During this time only Gangae pooja is done to the water flowing out of the cave in the form of waterfall.
It is also said that after being liberated from the curse Parashurama ate rice mixed in milk near the temple hence the name Halthi .
On the foothills is the Adichuchanagiri matta branch. They have been providing free service to the devotees by offering free food . Accomodation is also available. One needs to inform the matt beforehand or wait for half an hour to get food.
