A mountain by name “Tirumalagiri” is situated near Jaggiahpet in Krishna district. A number of Mumukshu Sages (Sages
who strive for final emancipation or salvation) influenced and impressed by the natural beauty and peaceful atmosphere of
this area, used to spend day and night here in penance. Maharshi Bharadwaj was one among the Seven great sages, who
once visited this mountain and prayed Lord Venketeswara to appear on this hill. Impressed by his penance or meditation,
Almighty God appeared in a “rocky anthill” in order to fulfill his desire. Later, Maharshi Bharadwaja spend his time in
worshipping Lord Swami for few years and left for Himalayas. Subsequently, the people of nearby villages came to Swami
with devotion and dedication, started worshipping. In this manner, Lord has become farmers as a God of fulfilling the desires
of devotees within no time.
