Guru Narasimha Temple, Hindu temple in Saligrama, India.
The temple stands between two sacred lakes named Shanka and Chakra Thirtha, featuring an ancient idol carved from Saligrama rock facing westward.
The temple dates back to the 8th century when King Lokaditya granted 14 villages to Brahmin families led by Bhattacharya for performing religious ceremonies.
The Koota Brahmin community regards Lord Narasimha as both their spiritual teacher and deity, maintaining centuries-old traditions through regular ceremonies.
The temple maintains direct transportation connections to Mangalore and Udupi, with the nearest international airport located in Mangalore.
The temple served as a place for formal oath-taking ceremonies until 1950, where participants performed specific rituals before the deity.
